Good question, but, no, I haven't. I don't depend upon AlphaVantage for FX 
rates; hence, I've never tried downloading FX data. Paul Teetor, Elgin, IL

 Paul have you tried FX download in Alphavantage? I tried all the lines below 
in R and all work apart from the last one for FX. Marco

Early in the development of the AlphaVantage code for quantmod, I contacted 
supp...@alphavantage.co with a bug report. They replied quickly and fixed the 
problem.

Later, I found another problem, which I reported, too. On one hand, they never 
replied to that e-mail. On the other hand, the problem disappeared. It left me 
with the impression that someone was monitoring that address but without time 
to spare.

I do occasionally get HTTP 503 errors (Service Unavailable) when I run my 
downloader late at night. Have not noticed problems beyond that since they 
fixed the first two.

To be fair, as long as we're not being spammed and the data works, (and
it's free), ... and relatively accurate, I think we're okay.  (May or may
not be speaking from experience).

I can visualize a scenario where a few busy people are putting this
together.
