Closed tryfonch closed 6 years ago

Does this library support the BChain function? If not is it going to be updated?

I think this function was introduced Nov '16. What I do in excel is I click on the Bloomberg ribbon and there exist a button called Function builder. A pop up will show up and there you select the function you want, in my case BChain (you will see there BDH, BDP, BDS, BCurve, BCurveFWD etc)

After you choose BChain you select ticker, "Chain Type" where you choose between Bonds, Loans and Options and lastly any additional attributes like Loan_Typ.

Unfortunately the only documentation regarding this function was on Terminal's Helpdesk and I cannot export that.

There is no way to implement it yet therefore I close this post.
