Common Issues & FAQ
My spreadsheet is slow. What can I do?
Use the RecordCount parameter to limit data. Instead of all bars, request only what you need (e.g., last 50 bars).
How often does it update?
Updates occur automatically during market hours, typically every few seconds.
Can I use this for multiple symbols?
Yes, but each dynamic function uses resources. Limit usage for better performance.
