Could you please provide a code example how to acess the Metadata Information, especially the value for GICS and Industry.

Just putting the line "var slqd = MetaData.SecondLastQuotedDate(Bars.Symbol);" in the Execute() method doesnt work.

What exactly doesn't work?

Any error message?

It says : "error CS0103: The name 'MetaData' does not exist in the current context"

Do I need any extra using statements? Couldnt find anything in the norgate documentation.

Here is my code:

I believe you should add a reference to NorgateData.Integration.WealthLab.dll which contains the MetaData class.

Unfortunately this didnt solve the problem

Your code is missing a using statement.

Shouldn't be necessary.

Thanks guys! It works now. Great support. Even on Sundays you are there for us. Appreciate it very much.

HI,
Using WLD 6.9 64-bit (migrated from WLPro) and Windows 10 64-bit
Using Norgate Data as data provider as Fidelity no longer an option.

Norgate apparently includes a security's Classification system in the metadata (https://norgatedata.com/data-content-tables.php#textual-information-fields). I couldn't find any example on their website on how to access the GICS info; there were some other examples and using them as a base put together the following code to see if it gets anything, but it doesn't work:

Note that the Norgate DLL has been added to the References.

Any suggestion on how to fix the code to get the GICS info?

I think that contacting Norgate Data for support on their data is the safe bet.

This will give you the GICS code, industry gics, sector, industry group, industry and sub-industry

Awesome, RoDen!!!

One more Q: Is SP1500 the largest 'basket' of stocks that one can reference for GICS info or is there an even larger one? And if so, what might its reference string be?

Start here:
https://norgatedata.com/wealth-lab-overview.php

Drill down to here:
https://norgatedata.com/wealth-lab-usage.php

There I found: Referencing Security Information. See the Notes in that section, where it says:

Thanks, Cone.

I'd looked at all WLab-related pages on their website but in the rush of migrating from WLPro -> WLDev probably didn't scroll down to bottom of the Usage page where all this info is located.

Hi,

when I add

CODE:
Please log in to see this code.

it says namespace 'NorgateData' could not be found...

(I have added NorgateData.Integration.WealthLab.dll to 'Other Assembiles to Reference')

Please advice

Thx

Hi,

Does your strategy compile and run successfully? Yes. So you can disregard the squiggly lines and that non-obtrusive message then, it's not an issue at all:

Hi Eugene,

It works now (I also had to use the FundamentalItem type - which I wanted to test - correctly. But due to the red squiggles, I was falsely focused on some library integration problem... )

Thx for the quick support even on Xmas ;-)

Patrick, at your service.
