Get quote price in time order

Hi @erik.wickman

I am fairly new to Python and I don't know what your level of Python is - so apologies if the following is patronising, but can you confirm how you are extracting the actual values from the return objects?

In the example code below, the get_date returns a tuple, from which I extract the dataframe and then the series which contains the actual value.

tp = ek.get_data('DANSKE.CO',fields=[ 'TR.TotalReturn'])
type(tp)
tuple
tp
(  Instrument  Total Return
 0  DANSKE.CO     -3.954802, None)
tr = tp[0]
type(tr)
pandas.core.frame.DataFrame
tr
    Instrument    Total Return
0    DANSKE.CO    -3.954802
ab = tr['Total Return']
type(ab)
pandas.core.series.Series
ab[0]
-3.95480225988701

If you are already aware of the above, please provide similar output so we can try and help diagnose where the issue lies.

Alternatively, you can use the raw_output parameter to access the JSON payload and parse out the data yourself e.g.

tp = ek.get_data('DANSKE.CO',fields=[ 'TR.TotalReturn'],raw_output=True)
tp
{'columnHeadersCount': 1,
 'data': [['DANSKE.CO', -3.95480225988701]],
 'headerOrientation': 'horizontal',
 'headers': [[{'displayName': 'Instrument'},
   {'displayName': 'Total Return', 'field': 'TR.TOTALRETURN'}]],
 'rowHeadersCount': 1,
 'totalColumnsCount': 2,
 'totalRowsCount': 2}
tp['data'][0][1]
-3.95480225988701

If the above also returns a None value, then I recommend you contact our Eikon helpdesk to help diagnose further.
