Intraday interval data from Bloomberg

Ram,

This is straightforward using the bar function, though admittedly the
documentation is not clear on what values the field parameter can
take.

Here are some better examples:
#############
require(Rbbg)
conn <- blpConnect()
ticker <- "GOOG US Equity"
start <- "2012-09-25 15:00:00.000"
end <- "2012-09-25 16:00:00.000"
interval <- "5"

bar(conn, ticker, "TRADE", start, end, interval)
bar(conn, ticker, "BID", start, end, interval)
bar(conn, ticker, "ASK", start, end, interval)
##################

Hope that helps,
John

Greetings,



I've downloaded the Rbbg package and am able to successfully execute all the
examples in the documentation.



Does someone have an example with the specifics of downloading intraday data
(for example 5 minute close of the bid) they could share?



Thank you,



Ram
