Detecting Price Trends in python - Higher Highs, Higher Lows

We automate a technical method of identifying uptrends and downtrends using python. We smooth out the price data using the Savitzky-Golay filter, and then label the highs and lows. When we detect higher highs and higher lows, that indicates an uptrend. This method is suitable for all tradeable assets for which we can produce OHLC candles.
