Frequently asked questions
- How far back does Glencore PLC data go?
- Glencore PLC daily and monthly candles reach back to 2011-05-19 — roughly 15 years. Tick and intraday history is shorter: it begins 2016-07-07. Both run up to the last completed trading day, and every licence tier reaches all of it.
- Why does Glencore PLC tick data start later than its daily candles?
- Because they come from different parts of the archive. Daily and monthly Glencore PLC candles are reconstructed from long-run end-of-day records going back to 2011-05-19, while the tick archive — every individual bid/ask quote — only begins 2016-07-07, about 5 years later. If your study needs the full 15-year span, work in daily candles; if it needs quote-level detail, 2016-07-07 is the earliest Glencore PLC start date available.
- How large is a full Glencore PLC download?
- The complete Glencore PLC 1-minute history is roughly 990K rows, about 49 MB as CSV. Daily candles over the same instrument are far smaller — around 3,800 rows, 192 KB. Tick and 1-second runs are larger again and are queued and resumable rather than fetched in one pass. Sizes are approximate; nothing is priced by volume.
- What columns are in the Glencore PLC CSV file?
- OHLC files contain a timestamp plus open, high, low and close columns; tick files contain a timestamp with bid and ask prices. All timestamps are UTC. The files import directly into Excel, Google Sheets, Python (pandas read_csv), R, MetaTrader, NinjaTrader and TradingView.
- Do you sell Glencore PLC data?
- No — we sell software. The MarketData Hub client retrieves Glencore PLC (GLENGBGBX) on your own machine, under your instruction, directly from the source; we never host, cache or relay it. Your use of the retrieved data is subject to the source's terms.
