Historical data for prior 2010 legacy OPRA 5‑character symbology.

axelamiral

Hello, I need your support !

I've been collecting expired OPRA call option premiums from 2025 to 2010. But Prior to February 2010, U.S. listed options used the legacy OPRA 5‑character symbology.

Would someone know how to request data knowing that I'm using the Excel add-in with RDP.HistoricalPricing and get_history (refinitiv.data) on python.

Thank you !
