Cannot Match Excel Historical Tick Data Using Python

jgomez1

Hi

I have the following EXCEL query working just fine:

=RHistory("GGAL.BA";"TRDPRC_1.Timestamp;TRDPRC_1.Value;TRDPRC_1.Volume";"START:29-May-2020 END:29-May-2020 INTERVAL:TICK";;"CH:Fd";B2)

Which returns tick history:

Updated at 09:48:04

TimestampLastTrade Volume29/5/2020 17:0793,1515029/5/2020 17:0793,1510029/5/2020 17:0793,1510029/5/2020 17:0793,1550029/5/2020 16:5993,5178629/5/2020 16:5993,5200029/5/2020 16:5993,5140029/5/2020 16:5993,520

I'm not quite sure on how to get the same data in python. I'm using:

>>> df, err = ek.get_timeseries(
...   rics       = ["GGAL.BA"],
...   fields     = ["TRDPRC_1.Timestamp","TRDPRC_1.Value","TRDPRC_1.Volume"],
...   start_date = "2020-05-29",
...   end_date   = "2020-05-29",
...   interval   = "tick"
...   )

The response is:

EikonError: Error code -1 | GGAL.BA: No data available for the requested date range | 

Thank you in advance

Your end date is same as start date. Do something like this:

>>> ek.get_timeseries('GGAL.BA', start_date = "2020-05-28", end_date = "2020-05-29", interval = "tick")
GGAL.BA                   VALUE  VOLUME
