SOFR SWAP CURVE

vlad.dimanshteyn

I'm trying to get SOFR SWAP Curve in real time. How would I do that? I have used Eikon in the past but your RDP library may have improved and I can use it?

Hi @vlad.dimanshteyn,

Please note that this forum is for technical questions related to LSEG technology (more specifically, LSEG APIs). For content questions such as yours, we suggest using myrefinitiv.

With that said, I had a quick look for you. I see that you taged your question with "eikon-data-api" (EDAPI), but I would suggest using its successor, RD Lib. If you have access to EDAPI, you will have access to RD Lib.
Looking on Workspace, I foudn the following RICs that may be of interest to you: "USDSOFR=", "SOFR1MAVG=", "USDSR3L10Y=".
Personally, I would suggerst looking for the SOFR SWAP for a specific horizon (e.g.: SOFR SWAP 10 year). This is how I found the above.
Assuming you are coding in Python, you can find data in ways similar to this:

# !pip install refinitiv-dataimport refinitiv.data as rd

rd.get_history(    universe=["USDSOFR=", "SOFR1MAVG=", "USDSR3L10Y="],    fields=["TR.CLOSEPRICE", "CF_CLOSE", "CLOSE", "BID", "CF_BID", "CF_ASK", "CF_LAST", "PRIMACT_1"], # , "TR.ACCUMULATEDVOLUME"    start="2023-01-01",    end="2023-07-01",    # interval='daily'    )

Thanks Jonathan for your help. I do not know the difference between LSEG, RD.etc, was just asking the question. I'm not sure if I have RDAPI, there just too many acronyms here. I will try your code and see. Where do I find description for different fields available and functions in RD library? I would like to get the swap curve realtime data, history is good as well. Thanks for your help again. For the functions that you wrote above, where is that forum? The person before you is not very nice, we pay a lot of money to Refinitiv and expect decent communication. TY

Please point me to the place where you took a quick look. TY

One more quick question Jonathan. By RD Lib you mean Refinitiv Data Platform API using request/response structures? TY

Hello @vlad.dimanshteyn

The Refinitiv Data Library (RD Lib) is the ease-of-use library that built on top of the Refinitiv Data Platform API (RDP - REST APIs). The RD Lib manages authentication and provide easier API interfaces to connect and consume data from RDP platform.

Hi @vlad.dimanshteyn, for help with the product ladscape and their acronyms, with the products you are using here, I would advise reading the article 'Summary of Common LSEG Refinitiv APIs'
