The End-of-Day Historical Data API returns the daily price history of a single instrument: open, high, low, close, adjusted close and volume, one row per trading day, for stocks, ETFs, mutual funds, indices, forex pairs and cryptocurrencies. You can aggregate the same series into weekly or monthly bars, slice it by date, sort it either way, or reduce it to a single number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

History is deep. The S&P 500 series starts on 30 December 1927<\/strong> and carries 24,794 daily bars<\/strong>; the oldest US common stocks we hold begin on 2 January 1962<\/strong>. Every figure on this page was measured against the live API on 17 September 2026, and every request example runs as written.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. \n You can start with \"DEMO<\/strong>\" API key to test the data for a few tickers only:\n AAPL.US<\/a>,\n TSLA.US<\/a>,\n VTI.US<\/a>,\n AMZN.US<\/a>,\n BTC-USD.CC<\/a>\n and\n EURUSD.FOREX<\/a>.\n For these tickers,\n all of our types of data (APIs)<\/a>,\n including\n Real-Time Data<\/a>,\n are available without limitations.\n <\/li>\n
  2. \n Register for the free plan<\/strong> to receive your API key (limited to 20 API calls per day) with access to\n End-Of-Day Historical Stock Market Data API<\/a>\n for any ticker, but within the past year only. Plus a\n List of tickers per Exchange<\/a>\n is available.\n <\/li>\n
  3. \n We recommend to explore\n our plans<\/a>,\n starting from $19.99<\/strong>, to access the necessary type of data without limitations.\n <\/li>\n <\/ol>\n <\/div>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

    This endpoint serves one symbol per request<\/strong>. To download a whole exchange for a single date, or to pull many tickers in one go, use the Bulk API<\/a>. For today’s price while the market is still open, use the Live (Delayed) API<\/a>; for intraday bars, the Intraday API<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n\n

    Unrecognised values are not errors. A misspelled fmt, period or order is accepted, ignored, and quietly replaced by the default, so a typo in your client produces plausible data rather than a failure. Validate these three values on your side before sending the request.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n\n\n
