Share New Research 
I am trying to get the price for an equity at the start of the day to use during the day for a trading strategy.
In the Initialize section I have::
self.Schedule.On(self.DateRules.EveryDay(), self.TimeRules.At(9,30,1), Action(self.openPrice))
And then the function:
def openPrice(self):
self.googopen = float(self.Securities["GOOG"].Price)
I have a log running and the value I get at 9.31 is Zero.
If I run the script over two days I get the closing price of day one in day two.
I appreciate I am extremely new to this and it is a case of not understanding the structure of the data but have got stuck.
Thanks
Lucas
Hi TobyQ
Can you share your script?
I think the reason that you are getting the data with a day delay, is that you are accessing it with Resolution.Daily. This means that the day has to pass, to get the daily data. This is shown right here
