Hourly vs daily

Use the resolution query parameter on the same endpoint:

ResolutionBest forRange
hourlyIntraday charts, short-term movesUp to ~100 days per request
daily (default)Multi-year trends, backtestsFull stored history
# Intraday (hourly listing snapshots)
curl -s "https://api.cspriceapi.com/v1/prices/youpin/history?market_hash_name=AK-47%20%7C%20Redline%20(Field-Tested)&resolution=hourly" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

# Multi-year (daily closes)
curl -s "https://api.cspriceapi.com/v1/prices/youpin/history?market_hash_name=AK-47%20%7C%20Redline%20(Field-Tested)&resolution=daily" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Listing prices are captured roughly every hour; daily points roll those up for long-range charts.

The dedicated Historical Data product exposes bulk history feeds for backtesting and portfolio analytics.
