 This is a fork of the original [TvDatafeed](https://github.com/rongardF/tvdatafeed.git) project by StreamAlpha. This fork has live data retrieving feature implemented. 
 More information about this will be found in the TvDatafeedLive section down below in the README.

 when using without login, following warning will be shown `you are using nologin method, data you access may be limited`
 
+**Note:** The nologin method now works for more than 5000 bars for some symbols (e.g., `XAUUSD:OANDA`). Try your symbol to check availability.
+
+This extended limit is typically available for the daily timeframe. Other intervals may still be restricted.
