Hi, I want to know if it is available to extract 5 years 5-minute equity data (volume, price) from Eikon API?
@Jayden.Zhang
There are several APIs for Eikon.
For this question, I assume that you mean Eikon Data API.
The get_timeseries method in the Eikon Data API doesn't support 5 years or 5-minute intervals. It supports the following intervals.
interval: string Data interval. Possible values: 'tick', 'minute', 'hour', 'daily', 'weekly', 'monthly', 'quarterly', 'yearly' (Default 'daily') Default: 'daily'
Thanks. One follow up question for tick data. I tried to extract tick data by the following formula as suggested previously. Want to know what the adjustments means?
response = rdp.HistoricalPricing.get_events(universe = 'VOD.L',
start = '2020-10-09T00:00:00.000000000Z',
end = '2020-10-10T23:59:59.999999999Z',
adjustments = [rdp.Adjustments.EXCHANGE_CORRECTION,rdp.Adjustments.MANUAL_CORRECTION])
I tried to search for the used API in API playground but cannot get it. May I have more detailed guidance? And want to know the real meaning and logic for the adjustment
BTW, how long minute level data is covered? Is there a data coverage document?
