Hey guys, I have defined my own little stock universe consisting of 30 stocks. I would now like to get fundamental data for these 30 stocks. Do you guys know if and how it is possible?
I am currently working on my bachelors thesis so I would appreciate any help.
Thanks and kind regards
Marcel
Do you just want to see the data or do you plan on using it in an algorithm? Q doesn't have a GUI to simply get pricing and other data (like other sites such as Yahoo). If you just want to view and manipulate fundamental data you will need to use the research environment based on interactive python notebooks (https://www.quantopian.com/help#overview-research)
Attached is a notebook which may get you started.
Hey Dan,
Thanks for your reply. I actually only want to use the fundamental data in an algorithm and to test the influence of fundamental analysis on an algorithmic portfolio.
The only constraint is that the algorithm only trades stocks from the preselected stocks which I defined as the universe for my graduation project.
If possible I would like to do something like:
For eachStock in universe:
pe = get.pe_ratio(eachStock)
pb = get.pb_ratio(eachStock)
If pe > 1:
Trade Here is an example which demonstrates (one way) how to use fundamentals to select stocks within an algorithm. It simply tries to hold a equal dollar amount of each security in a fixed universe which also passes some fundamental criteria.
Hope this helps.
Awesome this looks exactly like what I am looking for.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Kind regards
Marcel
