Current data for Bloomberg connection V3
Syntax
Description
Examples
Last and Open Price for Security
First, create a Bloomberg Desktop connection. Then, request last and open prices for a security. The current data you see when running this code can differ from the output data here.
Create the Bloomberg connection.
c = blp;
Alternatively, you can connect to the Bloomberg Server using blpsrv
or Bloomberg
B-PIPE® using bpipe
.
Request last and open prices for Microsoft®.
[d,sec] = getdata(c,'MSFT US Equity',{'LAST_PRICE';'OPEN'})
d = LAST_PRICE: 33.3401 OPEN: 33.6000 sec = 'MSFT US Equity'
getdata
returns a structure d
with
the last and open prices. Also, getdata
returns the
security in sec
.
Close the connection.
close(c)
Specified Fields Given Override Fields and Values
First, create a Bloomberg Desktop connection. Then, request data for specific fields for a security using an override field and value. The current data you see when running this code can differ from the output data here.
Create the Bloomberg connection.
c = blp;
Alternatively, you can connect to the Bloomberg Server using blpsrv
or Bloomberg
B-PIPE using bpipe
.
Request data for Bloomberg fields 'YLD_YTM_ASK'
,
'ASK'
, and 'OAS_SPREAD_ASK'
when
the Bloomberg field 'OAS_VOL_ASK'
is
'14.000000'
.
[d,sec] = getdata(c,'030096AF8 Corp',... {'YLD_YTM_ASK','ASK','OAS_SPREAD_ASK','OAS_VOL_ASK'},... {'OAS_VOL_ASK'},{'14.000000'})
d = YLD_YTM_ASK: 5.6763 ASK: 120.7500 OAS_SPREAD_ASK: 307.9824 OAS_VOL_ASK: 14 sec = '030096AF8 Corp'
getdata
returns a structure d
with
the resulting values for the requested fields.
Close the connection.
close(c)
Request for Security Using CUSIP Number
First, create a Bloomberg Desktop connection. Then, use the CUSIP number for a security to request last price. The current data you see when running this code can differ from the output data here.
Create the Bloomberg connection.
c = blp;
Alternatively, you can connect to the Bloomberg Server using blpsrv
or Bloomberg
B-PIPE using bpipe
.
Request the last price for IBM® with the CUSIP number.
d = getdata(c,'/cusip/459200101','LAST_PRICE')
d = LAST_PRICE: 182.5100
getdata
returns a structure d
with
the last price.
Close the connection.
close(c)
Last Price for Security with Pricing Source
First, create a Bloomberg Desktop connection. Then, request the last price for a security. Specify the security using the CUSIP number with a pricing source. The current data you see when running this code can differ from the output data here.
Create the Bloomberg connection.
c = blp;
Alternatively, you can connect to the Bloomberg Server using blpsrv
or Bloomberg
B-PIPE using bpipe
.
Specify IBM with the CUSIP number and the pricing source
BGN
after the @
symbol.
d = getdata(c,'/cusip/459200101@BGN','LAST_PRICE')
d = LAST_PRICE: 186.81
getdata
returns a structure d
with
the last price.
Close the connection.
close(c)
Constituent Weights Using Date Override
First, create a Bloomberg Desktop connection. Then, request the constituent weights of an index using a date override. The current data you see when running this code can differ from the output data here.
Create the Bloomberg connection.
c = blp;
Alternatively, you can connect to the Bloomberg Server using blpsrv
or Bloomberg
B-PIPE using bpipe
.
Return the constituent weights for the Dow Jones Index as of January 1,
2010, using a date override with the required date format
YYYYMMDD
.
d = getdata(c,'DJX Index','INDX_MWEIGHT','END_DT','20100101')
d = INDX_MWEIGHT: {{30x2 cell}}
getdata
returns a structure d
with a
cell array where the first column is the index and the second column is the
constituent weight.
Display the constituent weights for each index.
d.INDX_MWEIGHT{1,1}
ans = 'AA UN' [1.1683] 'AXP UN' [2.9366] 'BA UN' [3.9229] 'BAC UN' [1.0914] ...
Close the connection.
close(c)
Current Data and Dates as Table with Datetime
Create a Bloomberg® connection, and then request current data for specific fields. The getdata
function returns data for dates as a datetime
array.
Create the Bloomberg connection.
c = blp;
Alternatively, you can connect to the Bloomberg Server using blpsrv
or Bloomberg B-PIPE® using bpipe
.
Return data as a table by setting the DataReturnFormat
property of the connection object. If you do not set this property, the getdata
function returns data as a structure.
Return dates as a datetime
array by setting the DatetimeType
property of the connection object. In this case, the table contains dates in variables that are datetime
arrays.
c.DataReturnFormat = 'table'; c.DatetimeType = 'datetime';
Request current data for these fields:
Last update date
Last price
Number of trades
Previous real-time trading date
s = 'IBM US Equity'; f = {'LAST_UPDATE_DT','LAST_PRICE', ... 'NUM_TRADES_RT','PREV_TRADING_DT_REALTIME'}; d = getdata(c,s,f)
d = 1×4 table LAST_UPDATE_DT LAST_PRICE NUM_TRADES_RT PREV_TRADING_DT_REALTIME ____________________ __________ _____________ ________________________ 21-Dec-2017 00:00:00 152.2 24846 20-Dec-2017 00:00:00
Display the last update date. This date is a datetime
array.
d.LAST_UPDATE_DT
ans = datetime 21-Dec-2017 00:00:00
Close the Bloomberg connection.
close(c)
