ADA historical data

Hello everybody,

Could be seen as dumb question and for sure it is but does anyone know where we can find historical data minute by minute for ADA/USD or ADA/BTC ?

Cheers.

Unfortunately right there you got only day by day data, no more.

Thanks.

Oh damn, sorry, I missed the fact that you need minute candles I’m not sure if there’s anyone keeping that data at such hight resolution. The only thing I could find is this, tho:

If you know your way around APIs, Binance provides historical data.

The basis of any trading strategy is having a good backtesting solution, and you can't backtest unless you have data.

In this post I'm going to step through how to download and save historical data from the Binance API over a given timeframe.

This example does not require an account on [Binance][binance] as it utilises public API calls.

### Working with dates

It's convenient to be able to pass human readable dates, unfortunately the Binance server only understands millisecond timestamps 
so we need to convert our date.

This can be done by using helper websites like [current millis][current-millis] but we've got the power of python so let's use it.

First install the `dateparser` package
