Symbol Chart

Paritech.Prodigy.Control Symbol Chart <Exchange> <Market> <Symbol>

Retrieves historical charting data for a symbol.

Note

Prodigy does not directly store candles, but instead generates them based on the given record period, using the timezone for alignment.

Caution

Prodigy is a 24-hour exchange. As a result, From and To have both an optional time and timezone offset component. Offset conversions are performed when generating records.

If omitted they default to 00:00:00 and timezone offset 00:00, which may give unexpected results when working with periods larger than 1 hour.

For correct results, the timezone should match the timezone of the market.

Special care should also be taken with To, either specifying 23:59:59 as the time component, or increasing the date by one day.

Periods

Prodigy supports a flexible Period specifier.

• 1 to 60 minutes: 00:01, 00:02, 00:03, 00:04, 00:05, 00:06, 00:10, 00:12, 00:15, 00:20, 00:30
• 1 to 24 hours: 01:00, 02:00, 03:00, 04:00, 06:00, 08:00, 12:00
• 1 day: 1.00:00
• 1 to 52 weeks: 7.00:00, 14.00:00, … 364.00:00 (calculates using calendar weeks starting from Sunday)
• 1 month: 30.00:00 (calculates using calendar months)
• 1 quarter: 90.00:00 (calculates using calendar quarters)
• 1 year: 365.00:00 (calculates using calendar years)

‘Fractional’ periods, such as 1.12:00 are not supported.

Note

The TZ property is used for alignment, determining which record a particular trade is included in.
