    • Persistent AB1021 rate-limit error on getCandleData despite low request rate

      Update: This is not a one-day issue. On a completely fresh day (2026-08-11),
      restarting the bot from scratch, I got AB1021 "Too many requests" on the very
      first candle scan (09:20:02), before even completing 12 sequential requests
      spaced 6+ seconds apart. This confirms it's a persistent account-level
      restriction, not a temporary burst-triggered cooldown.

    • Persistent AB1021 rate-limit error on getCandleData despite low request rate

      I'm using SmartAPI's getCandleData (FIVE_MINUTE interval) for 12 NSE symbols.
      Since ~09:15 IST on 2026-08-10 I've been getting AB1021 "Too many requests"
      errors on most calls, continuously for 5+ hours, even after spacing my
      requests 6-10 seconds apart (well under the documented 3 req/sec limit).

      Affected window: 2026-08-10, 09:15 IST onward
      Error: AB1021 "Too many requests"

      This looks like an account-level throttle rather than a live rate-limit hit.
      Could you please help check if any restriction is applied to my account?
