option_at_time_quote() ​

ValueStandardPro
  • Returns the last NBBO quote reported by OPRA at a specified millisecond of the day.
  • The time_of_dayparameter represents the 00:00:00.000 ET that the quote should be provided for.
  • Using a sub-minute time_of_day (e.g. 09:30:10.000) will significantly slow the request and may cause it to hang, particularly when using expiration=*. Use a minute-boundary time (e.g. 09:30:00.000) instead.
