Does it work with commodities and stocks? #12

Closed kenorb closed 8 years ago

As in title, e.g. E_YHOO, E_BAY, E_AAPL, E_AMZN, etc?

giuse88 commented 8 years ago

I don't think so. The dukacopy downloader supports only FX and CDF and some commodities.

I've got this php script (dl_bt_dukascopy.php) which may support it, but I'm looking for Python implementation as well.

I am using the same feed, so if it works for the php script it should also work for duka. Give it a try: duka E_YHOO E_BAY E_AAPL E_AMZN It should download all yesterday ticks for those instruments.

@kenorb Hi, I tried to query dukascopy feed with the symbols in your script. Are you sure that the script is working right now? When I query for a stock, the server returns 404.

For example:

wget http://www.dukascopy.com/datafeed/E_T/05/2/15h_ticks.bi5

Returns an error.

I think I had the same issue, so that's why I was wondering if that works for you. I think the data is there (or was), but probably the URLs changed or the names, or they removed some of them.

E.g. this URL works:

https://www.dukascopy.com/datafeed/LIGHTCMDUSD/2016/04/23/03h_ticks.bi5

And other found at dukascopy historical page.

The link you posted works because it is one of the instrument in the historical data downloader. duka is able to download all instruments allowed in the historical downloader. Unfortunately only German stocks are there.

For instance, SAP stock works

Closing as it is not an issue.
