  • getting options history?

    Hi,
    I am trying to get history bars of a single option.

    I am using
    RequestHistory[sTicker,'D',btDays,10,-1,-1];

    I have tried the following names to get the option info

    "IBM JUL75C" - return an error for bad ticker (IsValidSymbol)

    "IBM GO" - does nothing

    If I put a stock symbol everything seems to work fine
    "IBM" - does return 10 days of information

    any ideas?

    if I put the "IBM GO" with the esignal application, I do get the quotes for the option.


    The development account I am using is entitled for Options.
    thanks

    "IBM GO" is the correct symbol. You should be able to receive real-time quotes for it using eSignal application and the Desktop API.

    Unfortunately, historical data for options is currently not supported.
