default field in bloomberg fetch

Postby amrsherif » Wed May 25, 2022 9:30 am

Hi,

I would like to know what field the bloomberg fetch defaults to in EViews?

For example, let's say i do this: fetch(d=bloomberg) "ticker index"

Notice how i did not pull a specific field such as px_last. Does EViews default to px_last? If EViews has no default, does that mean that Bloomberg might default to a field and i should ask them?

Thanks

You are correct. EViews defaults to PX_LAST if a field is not specified.
