Notes:

• I’m logged in to Finnhub and using a free API key.
• This happens even during live market hours.
• The dashboard shows the key is active and under the rate limit.
• Contact form on the site doesn’t respond, so I’m posting here.
• Please confirm if free-tier intraday /stock/candle data is still available for U.S. tickers like SPY.
