Dear John,

Thanks for the tip!  After a bit of experimentation, it seems that the problem has to do with the number of currency exchange rates requested. If I reduce the number to five or fewer, the price update works.  I guess this has to do with the limitations of AlphaVantage, which I have seen discussed elsewhere.  Thanks again for your support!

I'm not seeing an obvious solution to this other than allowing some time between requests which raises other issues, like, the currency trader jockey pressing "get my price now" every minute. [1]

I have an odd currency pair that only works in the early hours in european time. That is sort of OK for me because I know when it works and it is when that market is open.

I sort of feel sorry for anyone providing free prices these days.

So many tiny people wanting so much for free.

[1] I am known for saying that gnc should not be used for trading as it isn't suitable. For starters it records a price per day, think about the significance of that for an intra day trader. Duh!
