Is anyone’s 1Hour timeframe working on their bars? The 1Min works fine but the 1Hour doesn’t for some reason on my end - anyone else having this issue?

just started with Alpaca, but no, I’m having the same issue. It’s disappointing. 1Day and 1Min work, but not 1Hour. Also disappointed to hear that adjusted close is not available.

I would use 1Hour if available so that I could calculate my trailing percent stop in swing trade backtesting. 1Min downloads too many records, and I don’t want to fuss with downloading multiple sets/pages? of 1Min bars–if Alpaca even allows that.
