I've built something that rotates through ~2000 stocks once a day. I've been testing it so i've run into the 30,000 request limit today. I think i need better understand of this limitation before continuing. 1. Is the limit once a day, or once a month? The documentation refers to both (Sierra Chart Historical Data Service) 2. I have a chartbook with 4 charts. 1 month bar, 1 week bar, 2 daily bars. When i open the chartbook, is this considered 1 request, 3 requests, 4 requests? 3. If i call sc.StartDownloadHistoricalData on all 4 charts at the same time (in one interval), is this considered one request, or multiple requests? 4. Does this same limit exist if i'm connected to SC Real time feed? |

1. It is per month. Documentation has been updated. You can purchase additional downloads for 25 USD per month. We have added this information here: Sierra Chart Historical Data Service: Daily Data Download Limit And we will increase this to 50,000. 2, 3. The requests are based upon per symbol and per download request. 4. Yes. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

50,000 would be great. Im still not clear regarding 2. Would it be a request per chart, or does SC have some smarts to aggregate the requests into a single request since its within an interval?
