Price High - datatype(PH)
The highest traded price recorded during the trading day.
Prices are denominated in the major currency for all markets except the UK where pound sterling traded securities are displayed in pence.
PH is adjusted for corporate actions, for unadjusted Price High see UPH.
PH is unpadded, meaning on dates the quote has not traded then n/a will be displayed. For padded values see PHP.
For markets that consist of more than one exchange the datatype will return the close price of the default exchange. Using Japan as an example, the Toyota Motor price will return the close price for Tokyo (exchange code TY), to return the close price for Nagoya suffix the PH datatype with the exchange code ‘NG’, so PH becomes PH.NG.
