Description

Get cryptocurrency prices aggregated through Tiingo

Usage

riingo_crypto_prices(
  ticker,
  start_date = NULL,
  end_date = NULL,
  resample_frequency = "1day",
  base_currency = NULL,
  exchanges = NULL,
  convert_currency = NULL,
  raw = FALSE
)

Arguments

ticker	One or more cryptocurrency tickers. Specified as "btcusd" for bitcoin quoted in USD. A character vector.
start_date	The first date to download data for. A character in the form YYYY-MM-DD, or a Date variable. The default is to download 1 year's worth of data.
end_date	The last date to download data for. A character in the form YYYY-MM-DD, or a Date variable.
resample_frequency	For Tiingo data, a character specified as one of: "daily", "weekly", "monthly" or "annually". For IEX data, a character specified at the "min" or "hour" frequencies in the form: "1min", "5min", or "2hour". For Crypto data, a character specified at the "min", "hour" or "day" frequencies similar to IEX.
base_currency	Instead of ticker you may pass a base currency. This selects all currencies with that base currency. For example if 'base_currency="btc"“ tickers btcusd, btcjpy, btceur, etc.. will all be returned.
exchanges	If you would like to limit the query to a subset of exchanges, pass a comma-separated list of exchanges to select. Example) "POLONIEX, GDAX"
convert_currency	This parameter will convert the return data into another fx rate. For example if querying BTCUSD and convert_currency is 'cure', the bitcoin prices will be converted to CureCoin prices. Setting this to a value will add fxOpen, fxHigh, fxLow, fxClose, fxVolumeNotional, and fxRate accordingly. fxRate is the rate used to perform the currency calculation. If exchanges is specified, the conversion rate will be calculated using the exchanges passed.
raw	If TRUE, the raw underlying data from multiple exchanges will be returned, rather than the clean prices. This is the data that calculates the aggregated prices and quotes.
