TimeSeries Signal in EikonAPI or Excel

Hello,

I need direct signals or technical indicator datas from Eikon API. I see signal datas in Eikon monitor with the code; """Signal(Close() > ema(26, Close()))""".

When I copy the Eikon monitor to excel worksheet, the code alters the excel code formation; """=TR(A6,"Signal(Close() > ema(26, Close()))")""". However, i'm receiving 'Invalid Field' error.

Is there any way to take signal or technical indicators in excel or preferably python with EikonAPI?

Hello @osmana,

The source of the best advice and answers on how to do request specific content via Eikon, including Eikon Excel, is Eikon Helpdesk.

Eikon Helpdesk experts can be reached via Eikon->Help->Contact Us.

To my best knowledge, Eikon Excel exposes Eikon integration via Formula Builder and that does not include Eikon Monitor.

The Eikon content that is exposed via Formula Builder can be explored via API as well.
