  • getting history data

    historyHandle = esignalObj.get_RequestHistory("GEOI", "D",IESignal.barType.btDAYS, 5, -1, -1);

    Using this request statement, I get a continuing stream of responses, but they don't contain daily history data. I had assumed I would have received 5 days of end-of-day data for the previous 5 days from today. Apparently, I have a fundamental misunderstanding of how this works. Can someone please straighten me out?

    Q1. Is there any more recent/comprehensive documentation on the desktop API interface?

    Q2. Although I issue a ReleaseHistory() call for the stock handle, the Data Manager maintains the stock in its requested stock list limiting the additional stocks I can poll. How do I poll 101 stocks with my 100 stock limit other than raising the limit? Right now, I have to manually delete the stocks from the list.

    Thanks,
    Don
