How to fetch Symbols list for Exchange Short Name

[irajeshraj]

Hi,

I am looking to fetch all the symbols for
exchange short name: 'NYSE' in country: US
or
exchange short name: NSE in country: India

How to achieve it ?

First request:

import financedatabase as fd

equities = fd.Equities()

equities.search(exchange='NYS', country='United States')

Second request:

import financedatabase as fd

equities = fd.Equities()

equities.search(exchange='BSE', country='India')

Alternatively:

from financetoolkit import Discovery

discovery = Discovery(api_key="FMP_KEY")

all_stocks = discovery.get_stock_list()

all_stocks[all_stocks['Exchange Code'] == 'NSE']

Thanks for your response. I have three follow up questions: 1. How frequently non-US symbols databases get updated ? 2. How to get this API-key for the request? "discovery = Discovery(api_key="FMP_KEY")" 3. How to identify if a symbol is delisted from exchange ? since somewhere I read on github that the delisted symbols remains in databases

1. Not very frequently, I rely on outside contributions to maintain those. After all, if you want the most up-to-date GICS classifications you are looking at a $2.500 fee per month for a Bloomberg Terminal.
2. Please see: https://github.com/JerBouma/FinanceToolkit
3. A simple query with e.g. Yahoo Finance would result in no data for example. Delisted companies queried from e.g. Bloomberg will still get you data just not until today.
