Hi,

I epxerienced, that requests for historical data may sometimes last long (e.g. 10 days for daily MSFT data > 30 secs).

Is there any way to abort a request and to make sure, that no data for this request is returned after abortion ?

Regards

Dierk,

At this time there is not function available to abort a history request prior to receiving your data back.

However, we agree this would be a good thing to have. So, we'll place it on the wish list for a future product version.

Thank you,
