Rate limit and Historical API

The api rate limit is set at 10k per day but under the Data Api>History section in the docs say history is unlimited. Does calling fyers.history() function not count towards rate limit?

I'm creating a few indicators and so far i had to structure my code to stay within the 10k limit, majority of those api calls are for history, if its unlimited i can simply refactor my code and make it simpler for modifications.

Hi Javed,

Each request of fyers.history() function will be counted in the rate limit.

In the documents, it's mentioned that "Unlimited number of stocks history data can be downloaded in a day", which means there is no limitation on no.of stocks.

So please optimize your code, considering the rate limits on history api calls.
