About Settlement Price and EVol

[dangnguyen]

Hi,

I am trying to get Settlement Price and EVol through API but unsuccessful.

The functions in the API support to get Last price only. In addition, from some previous post that i read, i found that it need to configure in ES Soft not in coding, am i right?

Could you help me on how to get Settletment Price and Evol when the market is closed ( example symbol : KC Z1)?

Thank in advance

Regards,

Dang,

You are correct the "Use settlment Price" needs to be set in eSignal.

To set the settlement as the closing price for daily bars you'll need to go into the Advance Chart Properties. (Advance Chart-->Properties add a check mark to "Use Settlement for Daily Charts" ). NOTE: this setting will only work for exchanges that provide a settlement price at the end of each day.

EVOL is not an available data type for the RequestHistory function, however you could use VOL for intraday request. Volume associated with the Daily bar request are 1 day delayed from the exchange. Meaning the volume associated with today's daily bar is yesterdays volume.
