Hi QC community,
I am trying to get fine data on one particular equity (ie. AAPL), and I can't seem to figure out how to do it.
Is there a way to request the fundamental data outside of an AddUniverse(self.CoarseFilter, self.FineFilter) statement?
This is for research on one particular equity, and I'd like to pull financial data and plot it over specific time periods.
Thanks!

Hi Volatilitycoder,
We can first create the AAPL Symbol object with Symbol.Create(‘AAPL’, SecurityType.Equity, Market.USA). Then in the coarse selection function, we can return this symbol, so that only AAPL is passed to the fine filter. I’ve shown how to do this in the attached backtest.
Best,
Shile Wen
