Apply function on a Pandas Dataframe - python-3.x

Question

Apply function on a Pandas Dataframe
I have a code (C01) that calculates the moving averages (21 periods) of a given stock (individual) on the stock exchange (IBOV - B3-BRAZIL). Then I created a for loop where it determines that an asset is in an upward trend after 6 highs followed by moving averages (hypothesis, considering that there are more variables to determine this).
However, I want to do this loop for more than one asset, in this case C02, that is, it applies a function in each column of my code and returns only the name of the assets that are in an upward trend (in this case, the column name). I tried to turn the for loop into a function and apply that function using the pandas 'apply' to each column (axis = 1, I tried tbm axis = 'columns'). But I'm having an error creating the function. When I execute the function using apply, the message "ValueError: Lengths must match to compare" appears. How can I fix this?
Grateful for the attention.

Answer 1

something like:
def myfunc(x):
#do things here where x is the group of rows sent to function
#instead of df['column'], you'll use x['column']
#because you are passing the rows into x
return x
df.groupby('yourcolumn').apply(myfunc)
