'DatetimeIndex' object has no attribute 'to_datetime' #22

Description

@plankconst

I am using Python 3.7 and Pandas 0.24

I get this error from holding_periods function.

def holding_periods(eqd):
    # rather crude, but will do
    return pd.Series(eqd.index.to_datetime(), index=eqd.index, dtype=object).diff().dropna()

Should it be?

def holding_periods(eqd):
    # rather crude, but will do
    return pd.Series(pd.to_datetime (eqd.index), index=eqd.index, dtype=object).diff().dropna()

Or it might be deprecated in latest versions of Pandas:

https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/version/0.21/generated/pandas.Timestamp.to_datetime.html

Timestamp.to_datetime()
DEPRECATED: use to_pydatetime() instead.

Convert a Timestamp object to a native Python datetime object.
