Receiving Data From Multiple Sources
You can see a timeline for all sources for an instrument by pulling up the symbol on Audit / Symbols list and > Symobls page, clicking edit and then "Show Data Sources".
Changes are made under the following circumstances:
- If any material change is received and we only have only one source for historic data, the active timeline is updated a/o the date changes are received.
- If the current symbol is an incomplete option and we are receiving option specifications that were missing (e.g. underlying security), we will update the option with the change regardless of the number of sources for historic data.
- If the current symbol is missing a multiplier, we will update the multiplier regardless of the number of sources for historic data.
- If the Cusip/Isin or description are missing we will set those once received from any source.
Note Note: Merged merged data can be overridden manually.
