Using TqSdk Data Feeds with vn.py
Summary
A forum exchange asks whether vn.py version 3.9.1 can still use a TqSdk account to obtain historical data, and what naming convention TqSdk uses for continuous main contracts. The question gives the example of downloading tick history for the main silver contract and asks whether a local symbol such as the SHFE silver continuous code is appropriate.
The only reply points readers to vn.py's TqSdk data feed documentation and indicates that the integration is supported. It does not explain the continuous-contract naming convention, confirm a specific symbol, or provide a worked download example. Traders should consult the linked documentation for those details; this short exchange alone does not establish whether support or symbol formats differ across versions or data types.
Key ideas
- The reply indicates that vn.py supports obtaining data through its TqSdk integration.
- The post asks how TqSdk names continuous main contracts, using SHFE silver tick history as an example.
- No concrete symbol format or historical-data download steps are supplied in the exchange.
