Thanks! The correlation matrix looks like it could potentially be made using Excel. Do you use excel or other software for that? If you do use excel, can you recommend any good free (of reasonably priced) API data sources for use in excel? Any tutorial links would be much appreciated. I don't mind if data is delayed. I want to be able to search for basically any instrument like I can in TradingView, but I want to have it in excel so I can setup correlation matrices and run statistical analyses either in excel or export the .csv to R/R Studio (guess I could figure out how to get data directly into R with Python but that's a bit beyond my pay grade).
Thank you, great coverage as always! Have a good Sunday!
