Have you tried HelpHelp or looked at the API documentation?Bloomberg only gives access to tick data for the last 6 months. All contracts differ but usually 6 months is the limit.Instead of trying to get the last price why don't you try getting the open price (OPEN or PX_OPEN) since you are looking at 8 am.
