Bloomberg Connector

The Bloomberg connector connects StockSharp to a broker or electronic venue for financial markets. It translates provider-specific data and operations into the unified StockSharp message model, so applications can use the same subscriptions and workflows across different venues.

Key capabilities

• Typical coverage: equities, futures, options, FX and CFDs, bonds and fixed income, funds and ETFs, commodities, indices.
• Instrument discovery and provider reference data.
• Market data supported by the adapter: Level 1 quotes, tick trades and candles.
• Historical data requests for charting, analysis, and backtesting.
• Provider-supported order submission and execution workflows.
• Portfolio, balance, position, and execution-state updates.
• Provider-specific transport, sessions, and data formats are hidden behind the standard StockSharp API.

Typical use

Use this connector for live strategies, trading terminals, order-management services, and monitoring tools that need direct access to the provider.

Available instruments, data depth, trading permissions, rate limits, and service availability are controlled by Bloomberg and by the connected account or API plan.
