Environment

This section will import relevant internal and external libraries, as well as setting up the platform environment. For further information on setting up the environment, see Environment setup.

import sigtech.framework as sig

import datetime as dtm

if not sig.config.is_initialised():
    env = sig.init()
    env[sig.config.CUSTOM_DATA_SOURCE_CONFIG] = [
        ('[A-Z]{6} CURNCY', 'REFINITIV'),

future = sig.obj.get('NGZ20 COMDTY')

The method intraday_history_fields provides the available intraday time series:

future.intraday_history_fields

The intraday data is available in a few different period time frames:

  • 1M

  • 5M

  • 10M

  • 1H

future.intraday_history(field='LowPrice', period=dtm.timedelta(minutes=1)).dropna().iloc[4030:4050]
