I tried the below code and it ran successfully but returned an empty dataframe.
Can you please check this still works
es = qb.AddFuture("ES") es.SetFilter(timedelta(0), timedelta(180)) future_history = qb.GetFutureHistory(es.Symbol, datetime(2017, 1, 11, 10, 10), datetime(2017, 1, 13, 12, 10)) future_history.GetAllData()Â

Hi,
We've just done an overhaul of our futures data and will have the Research Environment updated soon. Once this is done, this code should work fine, but if you continue to encounter issues with it in the next week, please let us know and we'll do our best to find a solution.

I want to evaluate some ideas on options. But I need the greeks, looks like we can not get them through `option_history.GetAllData()`. How can we get the greeks and IV?
Link Liang
Hi Ch9ki7,
In research environment, there is no direct access to those values, therefore you have to calculate on your own. However, we offer those values in backtesting terminal. Here is the usage of option data. Greeks and IV can be accessed as properties of OptionContract object.
Hope it helps!

Hi Jack,
I tried the example code for retrieving historical futures data, but when I get all the data nothing prints. Is there a bug for historical futures data?
Thanks,
Brian
Link Liang
Hi Brian,
Sorry about the inconvenience, we are aware of the bug and are working on addressing it for the community. Due to the current work in progress, we expect this will be resolved in about 1 week.
Brian Weber
Thank you, Link! No worries I check back in about a week to try the code again.

the label [GOOG] is not in the [index]
but I suppose that if I use SPY and XAUUSD only it fails as well.
Why is this happening?
Hao Bin Zhang
Islander I think it has to do with this line
h1 = qb.History(qb.Securities.Keys, 360, Resolution.Daily)Â
I don't believe the research can handle that much data currently.Â

We're rebuilding research from scratch. It should be available by the end of next week.

Hi Jared, is it possible to have Extended Market Stock data in the Research Environment as I tried to pass it to bo AddEquity and History functions to no avail?
Xin Wei
Hi Omegab,
Extended market hours data is available in the research environment. I've attached a Research Notebook to show how to implement it. Please check it out.

Hi Mike,
This is a result of how we aggregate and timestamp daily data. It is timestamped at UTC 00:00 the day after it has happened -- i.e., all data from 2019-11-15 is aggregated and we create a Daily OHLCV with the timestamp 2019-11-16 00:00.
