not getting the latest data point

ek.get_timeseries('BOK9') returns me up to 11th of jan, which should be the 14th. Properly works in excel though so no data issue

BOK9 is just an example, the rest of the RIC BO has the same issue and maybe even more commodities

I restarted the kernel, that fixed it. But should not be necessary in my opinion. I had Reuters running overnight on a pc which does not shut down.

@eddy_de_groot it is a known bug in in the get_timeseries() call. I believe this issue is going to be fixed in 0.1.14. In the meantime, you need to explicitly set the start_date and end_date parameters.

Hi @eddy_de_groot

I'm not able to replicate your output. The code

df = ek.get_timeseries(["BOK9"], start_date="2019-01-01", end_date="2019-01-15")
df

gives me:

If I specify the end_date I also get the data properly, but if I leave the enddate unspecified I only get up to the 11th

Hi @eddy_de_groot

I'm still not able to replicate that. Can you share the code?

I already did in the original question:
