Hello.  
I’m experimenting with Alpaca API, and got stuck on one of the API calls - GetBars ( [alpaca-trade-api-go/rest.go at master · alpacahq/alpaca-trade-api-go · GitHub](https://github.com/alpacahq/alpaca-trade-api-go/blob/master/alpaca/rest.go#L535) ). One of the arguments is “Adjustment” and I can’t figure out what it is and what are the possible values. Could someone help me out ?

If you request adjusted aggregates you get numbers that have been adjusted for events like stock splits. You can see the different options in the code here: [alpaca-trade-api-go/entities.go at 1c30ca86398f01b91ea41b7adaab9f579845ea8b · alpacahq/alpaca-trade-api-go · GitHub](https://github.com/alpacahq/alpaca-trade-api-go/blob/1c30ca86398f01b91ea41b7adaab9f579845ea8b/v2/entities.go#L52)
