Hi,

Although i m using symbol provided in sample i.e.. NSE:SBIN-EQ … history api is giving me below error:

{‘s’: ‘error’, ‘code’: -300, ‘message’: ‘Please provide a valid symbol’}

please help with valid symbol format.

Also, what should be the format for fetching data for n number of symbols say 20 ,30 or 50 symbols in one request

Hey Rahul,
the symbol NSE:SBIN-EQ is correct and I am getting the historical data for it. Can you send a screenshot of your code.
Only one symbol can be passed for historical API.

Hi Vikram, I’m facing a similar issue, but with a different symbol. Im getting error when I use NSE:BANKNIFTY21AUG36000CE, Can’t we get previous week options history? I needed this for bacl testing my strategy. (Note NSE:BANKNIFTY2190236000CE is working fine)

Hi,

After some struggling, I came to understand that fyers do not provide option data except the current week. So either u have to pay for their premium third party services or else wait for every Friday. Collect all the data once and store it in a database

After a couple of weeks you will have some historic data to do your back testing.
