Bar Streaming

Live

Bar Streaming is one of TrueData Sheets' most powerful features. It lets you pull live OHLC candlestick data directly into your spreadsheet - starting from any historical date you choose, replaying all past bars, and then continuously appending new candles as they form in real time.
