Requested field values from get_timeseries into different currencies.

Getting prices from get_timeseries, using RICs for companies, will get you the values in the reported currency (e.g. if its a company from .HK, will report values in HKD, am I right?).

Is there a way to request the field values in a currency different than the one that's reported?

Say, get BID and ASK for some company from .HK in USD instead of HKD?

Thanks for any help provided.

Hi @aquilesjlp300

According to document on get_timseries at this URL

It seems that the function does not support currency.

However, you can follow this example using get_data

.
