Stock quote limit?

jcdocka opened this issue · 3 comments

Is there a way to get around the 10 stock quote limit? Like if I want to get quotes on 100 stocks.

I don't think there is a hard limit, but I believe there is some rate limiting involved so as not to overwhelm investopedia with stock quotes.

Thanks for the update! I did find where I could increase the limit for a set time period. Would you happen to know about what it may be in a time period? Working on pinging some stock info and don't want to get blocked.

I'm not too sure - but I think i set the rate limiting to about the edge of where Investopedia seemed to be rate limiting and causing errors. There is a separate rate limit set for option chain lookups; that's going through a third party provider.
