Norgate Data

Norgate Data provides high-quality, survivorship-bias-free end-of-day (EOD) historical market data for US, Australian and Canadian stocks, around 100 worldwide futures markets, and foreign exchange. Data is not delivered as a hosted REST API. Instead, subscribers install the Norgate Data Updater (NDU), a Windows desktop application that downloads and maintains a complete local database and runs a local data service. Programmatic access is through the norgatedata Python package (on PyPI), which talks to that local NDU service and returns price/volume history, corporate actions, index constituent history, security metadata, fundamentals, and watchlists as Pandas DataFrames or NumPy arrays. Norgate also ships plugins for platforms such as Amibroker and is widely used with Python backtesting frameworks (Zipline, Backtrader). This entry honestly models the norgatedata library's logical operations as capability areas; it is a client library over a local service, not a public HTTP/REST API.

Norgate Data publishes 5 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Market Data, Financial Data, Historical Data, Futures, and Stocks.

Norgate Data’s developer surface includes documentation and 5 more developer resources.

Kin Score Kin Score How this is scored →
scored 2026-09-08 · rubric v0.20.0
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Securities & Market Data regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/norgate-data: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
