V3_INDEX_SNAPSHOT_OHLC() ​

StandardPro
  • Retrieves the real-time current day OHLC.
  • Exchanges typically generate a price report every second for popular indices like SPX.
  • Returns the latest message for each symbol from the past 7 days (for example, on a Friday back to the previous Friday). Outside market hours it returns values from the most recent trading session. Symbols with no messages in the past 7 calendar days are not returned. Use current_day_only=true to return only today's data.
