Average Daily Volume

Hello,

I am currently using the `PriceHistoryExtractionRequest` to query for historic prices. I would like to use the API to also retrieve the average daily trading volume for exchange-listed securities (https://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/averagedailytradingvolume.asp)

I have tried querying for Daily Average, but the response does not return back any data for `Daily Average`. Is this the correct field to fetch adv?

Request:

{
  "ExtractionRequest": {
    "@odata.type": "#ThomsonReuters.Dss.Api.Extractions.ExtractionRequests.PriceHistoryExtractionRequest",
    "ContentFieldNames": [
      "RIC",
      "Trade Date",
      "Universal Close Price",
      "Daily Average"
    ],
    "Condition": {
      "AdjustedPrices": true,
      "QueryStartDate": "2019-12-01",
      "QueryEndDate": "2019-12-20"
    },
    "IdentifierList": {
      "@odata.type": "#ThomsonReuters.Dss.Api.Extractions.ExtractionRequests.InstrumentIdentifierList",
      "InstrumentIdentifiers": [
       
        {
          "IdentifierType": "Ric",
          "Identifier": "SHV.O"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

  • Hi @elvis.fernandez,

    I'm not a content expert, but there are fields providing Average Volume for days ranging from 5 days till 6 months in the Composite report template. You may try the fields to see if this is the data you're looking for.

    For very specific data content query like this one, the best and speediest way to receive an answer is to open a content-related enquiry via MyRefinitiv or to call the Refinitiv Help Desk directly
