ek.StreamingPrices() RIC limits

Hi,

Is there a limit to the number of RICs when using ek.StreamingPrices() with the EIKON DATA API?

I'm trying to get 3000RIC, but it's taking a long time, so I'm asking.

Hi @hikaru.okumura01

The Eikon Data API is not ideal for large volumes of Streaming data.

If you do wish to consume large watchlist sizes of streaming data you should be using one of our Real-Time APIs such as RT-SDK or Websocket API - sourcing the data from Real-Time Optimised or a deployed Real-Time feed (Elektron).
