I had a doubt using the Quandl API for MATLAB: When I get the data using the Quandl.get function, for example:
startDate = {'2013-12-20'}; % initial date
endDate = {'2014-10-21'}; % final date
data = Quandl.get('OFDP/FUTURE_CL1', 'trim_start', startDate, 'trim_end', endDate);
I can access the field data.Settle.Data to get the prices and data.Settle.Time to get the time date (perhaps a Time format of timeseries from MATLAB).
The problem is the following: in
dates = data.Settle.Time,
I get a date format that isn't compatible with MATLAB date. For example, if use datestr(dates) the corresponding string date isn't the actual date when I download the data manually.
I also tried to transform the dates vector manually using
datenum(startDate) + dates.
But it didn't work at all.
I would like to know how can I solve this (perhaps little) problem in order to get the real MATLAB serial date (like datenum(2014,10,21)).
Thanks everyone in advance!
