Can you please teach me how to take certain data from Eikon?

Hi, i'm student and need to use Eikon for the first time to get certain information.

I need data from screener. I have to get data from only NYSE, healthcare sector, top gainers, top losers, price, both dates- 1 december 2019 and 1 december 2021. I'm confused how I can take the top15 gainers and losers and download it to excel with prices and price change % at mentioned dates.

I would be very very thankful if you can help me and tell me how I can get these things!

  • Hello @maria.ka ,

    This forum can be of most help to you with Eikon Data API usage questions.

    I think you are looking to learn how to use Eikon Screener, I would suggest, on your Eikon search bar, to search for "screener", select "Screener online help - learn how to use Screener App", and be guided on getting started with Eikon Screener for a variety of use cases:
