Hey, what would be the most efficient way to download all of the FX pair data using the API?
Max retries exceeded with URL.
I think the Hisdata website's certificate expired.
Out of curiosity, tested compressing files since this repo hitting storage limit. Used the GBPUSD folder as a test: https://github.com/philipperemy/FX-1-Minute-Data/tree/master/2000-Jun2019/gbpusd
Extracted contents of each zip file
Compressed all the CSV and TXT files using 7zip CLI: 7z a -r -mx=9 gbpusd *.csv *.txt
New zip file: 27mb
Original folder size: 52mb
There are other compression algorithms/tools that have higher compression ratios, but found them to be unstable or too slow.
Thanks for the dataset, but shouldn't there be ,
instead of ;
in the CSV files?
