Question by asdfasdfasdf_deprecated_0 · Aug 26, 2016 at 04:31 PM · eikon-sdkfuturescontent

futures trading dates via eikon api

Is it possible using any of the Eikon APIs to get the first trade, last trade, and, where relevant, first notice dates for a given futures contract?

@asdfasdfasdf since this is a content question, I suggest that you should raise this with the Thomson Reuters Support Desk. If this data is on Eikon, most likely you can get it using the APIs.

Thanks. The data is available on Eikon in at least one place. If you open up a quotes window and go to 0#EXCHANGE/DATES, then the data is available if you click through there.

Is it possible to access this page through the .NET API though? It doesn't look like it to me.

It is quite possible, however, not particularly straight forward. For instance, if we are looking at CME/DATE view, it consists of four text pages: CMEDATE1 to CMEDATE4. The left side of the table is present on CMEDATE1 and 3, while the right side is on CMEDATE2 and 4.

You can get all fields from CMEDATE1 using the real-time request or subscription and then collate them on the logical level and parse out the text using coordinates or regular expression.

I will use the Excel function as an example:

=MID(RData(A1,"ROW80_10","RTFEED:IDN"),37,10) will give you the date for the BRL futures on CME.

Thanks. That is pretty convoluted! I'll try this, but it would be useful to have this data accessible via a more straightforward API (as is possible on Bloomberg). Where would I raise this as a feature request?
