Introducting myself and first question: is Bloomberg useful?

posted

Hello I' m Ruben from Spain I'm new in Quantopian, well I ve been some months looking at the website and doing the basics algos but this is the first time that I write something. I work in a european equity broker based on Monaco and I have access everyday to Bloomberg. I was wondering is this useful somehow. If someone need it for something just let me know.

Thanks and nice to meet you.

If Bloomberg provides you with data in CSV format, you can access it from your Quantopian algorithms via Fetcher. Read about Fetcher on the Quantopian help page and in this forum.

With a Bloomberg, you might be able to do some interesting strategies which take advantage of ETF indicative value data, and shares outstanding data.

Bloomberg contains information. What information are you looking for?
