Did you receive any answer @EngAhmedElkady?

Did anyone every hear from MarketStack on this? There are other issues filed here about bad data, and it appears they are silent on it.

It took me 2 months to resolve the issue with them. They have been gaslighting me endlessly, answering only every 15 days. I ended up having to be ready to file a complaint against them in their home country and they finally "accepted" to cancel my subscription. I was wondering if I had been too hard but with hindsight I think they run a scam and should have filed it. Not sure if apilayer is the same team as marketstack but they never wanted to take part in the discussion.

I've opened a support request, but I'm not holding my breath for a resolution. They said it was "a known issue the development team was working to fix" and that they would let me know as soon as the fix is in place.

Considering the same issue was reported in September 2020, I doubt the sincerity of their response:

https://github.com/apilayer/marketstack/issues/10

Have you found other sources of good adjusted data? While yfinance is good, I'd hesitate to build anything around it out of fear of getting blocked.

@IM-001 I didn't reach for a solution so I changed the data provider
