I am using the following to retrieve prices from History with a Minute resolution. How do I get the times?
hist = self.History(["ADBE"], 780, Resolution.Minute)
prices = hist.close
for price in prices:
self.Log(str(price))
I know it's there but can't figure out how to access it and would appreciate some help.

"hist" is a pandas dataframe. The index is datetime. Any functions of pandas dataframe apply to history request result.

You could use
for tuple in history.itertuples(): time = tuple.Index close = tuple.close

Thanks, as always. Since the Index includes both symbol and time it appears I can tweak your answer and use:
history = self.History(["ADBE"], 780, Resolution.Minute) for tuple in history.itertuples(): time = tuple.Index[1] close = tuple.close self.Log(str(time)+' '+str(close))
I've got a lot to learn.
