About the GSCT data

Daily bars. 14,410 sessions from Jan 1, 1970 to Nov 13, 2026, one row per LSE trading day with open, high, low, close and volume. Prices are adjusted for splits and cash dividends so the series is comparable across its whole length; the API also serves the raw, split only and dividend only views.

Minute bars. Stored from Sep 17, 2026 forward, most recent session Nov 5, 2026. Minute history is captured from the day collection began and is never backfilled, so this start date is exact. Five minute, fifteen minute and hourly bars are derived from these minutes.

Time and currency. Session dates are LSE trading days; minute timestamps are UTC. Prices are in GBP. Volume is shares traded on the session.

Get the data. The REST endpoint returns the daily series as JSON with pagination; a free key serves the last year, Quant and above the full history back to Jan 1, 1970, and minute bars come with the paid windows. It takes timeframe (1Min, 5Min, 15Min, 1Hour, 1Day), adjustment, start and end. See the bars endpoint and authentication, and pricing for the plan windows.
