Question by Sascha K · Jun 05, 2019 at 05:21 AM · eikoneikon-data-apieikon-com-apitime-series.netforex

How to convert timeseries quotes from original currency to e.g. EUR?

When requesting bid / ask quotes for e.g. "NEL.OL" following your tutorial I get the values in NOK currency.

Is there a way to convert the values in C# / .NET using the EIKON Desktop Data API to a certain fixed currency, e.g. EUR?

If that is not possible is there an elegant way to get the ISO currency code together with the bid / ask quotes when requesting timeseries data for a RIC?

Thanks a lot in advance for any help.

@Sascha K

There is no interface in ITimesSeriesDataService to specify a currency code in the request.

However, you can use the GetCommonData method to get the currency code for a specified instrument RIC.

 IMetadataRequest metaRequest = timeSeries.Metadata.GetCommonData("NEL.OL" 
	,commonData => 
		{ 
			Console.WriteLine("Currency: {0}", commonData.Currency.ToString()); 
		} 
	, error => 
		{ 
			Console.WriteLine(error.Message); 
		} ); 

The output is:

Currency: NOK
