The free tier just says it doesn’t have “Unlimited API Calls”, but doesn’t specify what the limit is. So what is the limit? I know there’s a 200 call per minute limit but I’m guessing free tier is under that? I’m trying to fetch 1 day 5 minute bars for a bunch of tickers.
Also, is the “Unlimited” data plan limited by the 200 call/minute or is it truly unlimited?
Hi, I’m also curious to know the API call limit for the free tier?
I subscribed to get unlimited API calls but still see some form of limitation/halting of API calls. Please help
From what I understood, those 200 requests per minute are a limitation for the “Free” tier only.
The “Unlimited” tier has a limitation of 1000 requests per minute. However, you have unlimited websocket subscriptions, while the “Free” tier has just 1.
The “Business” doesn’t have limitations.
