(Please include r-sig-finance in your replies so that others may benefit from this exchange.) 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 USAhttp://quantdevel.com/public

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.
