Permission description
According to the user’s assets and transactions, the number of targets that different types of users can query historical data on each month is as follows:
- The quota is calculated based on the natural month. The quota is topped up at the beginning of each month. The remaining quota from the previous month will not be accumulated to this month. If you repeatedly request the historical K-line of the same target within a natural month, it will only be counted once.
- For newly deposited accounts, the limit will automatically take effect on the next trading day; when the account's total assets or number of transactions increase and reaches a higher level, the limit will take effect on the next trading day.
- Total assets: The total assets of the user's Hong Kong stocks, U.S. stocks, A-shares and other securities accounts are converted into Hong Kong dollars according to the exchange rate. Take the larger value of the user's total assets on the last trading day of the previous calendar month and the total assets on the most recent complete trading day.
- Number of transactions per month: The number of orders that the user has completed. Partial completion of one order, complete completion of multiple transactions, or all transactions at one time are counted as 1 transaction. Take the larger value of the user's number of transactions in the last natural month and the number of transactions in the current natural month.
| User Type | The maximum number of targets that can be queried per month |
|---|---|
| User account opening | |
| Total assets reach HKD 10,000 | |
| Total assets reach HKD 80,000 | |
| Total assets reach 400,000 HKD or the number of transactions per month is greater than 160 | |
| Total assets reach 4 million HKD or the number of transactions per month is greater than 1,600 | |
| Total assets reach 6 million HKD or the number of transactions per month is greater than 2,500 |
