We just added a new high quality datasets from our data partners Estimize.com! You can request this data using the AddSentiment method:
AddSentimentData(SentimentDataType.Estimize, "IBM");
This will push earnings estimates from the Estimize users into your algorithm simulations OnEstimize() event:
public override void OnEstimize(Dictionary
}
See the blank project template for an example of this new functionality - in the coming days @Jeremy will design a special template algorithm for this new data!

Hi Marisol,
We no longer support this dataset, but we are currently working with a number of other alternative data providers to give users access to a wide variety of sentiment and other non-price data.
