How can I get all the trades for a stock for 1 day? Using the code below I can get 10 trades, but I would like all the trades for a specific day.

If I remove the ‘limit=10’, I get the following error message, “sleep 3 seconds and retrying [https://data.alpaca.markets/v2/stocks/AAPL/trades](https://data.alpaca.markets/v2/stocks/AAPL/trades) 3 more time(s)…”

Additionally, I would like to get the trade history into a csv file but I am getting an error message for that as well, “AttributeError: ‘TradesV2’ object has no attribute ‘to\_csv’”

I just funded an account and Alpaca said I have one month of free data. I am also teaching myself python starting this year.

’  
from alpaca\_trade\_api.rest import REST  
import config

api = REST(config.API\_KEY, config.SECRET\_KEY, base\_url=config.BASE\_URL)

df = api.get\_trades(“AAPL”, “2021-12-13”, “2021-12-13”, limit=10)

print(df)

#df.to\_csv(‘AAPL\_Trades.csv’)  
’
