Hello everyone,
I'd like to use the history method to create a dataframe, then sort it by the price of the highs and get the timestamp of the all-time high out of it.
Share New Research 
history = ("AAPL", 200, Resolution.Daily)
history = history.sort_values(by="high", ascending=False)
timestamp = history.loc["time"][0]This way it's not working because I get a key error. So what do I have to use instead of "time"?
Best regards,
Christian

Hi Christian,
qb.History() will return a panda dataframe. Here is some information about usage.
"time" is not a column of the dataframe. In fact, it is index. Therefore we should access it by dataframe.index.
Here is my attemp to realize your idea. Hope it helps!

Hello Link,
thank you for your answer. It's clear to me now that I have to access it differently as an index. Now it's working:
history = self.History("AAPL", 200, Resolution.Daily) history = history.sort_values(by= "high", ascending=False) self.Log(history.loc["AAPL"].index[0])Â
