Hi, I'm just getting started here. I want to develop day-trading strategies in Python, and I will need minute-bar charts. Scanning the forum posts, it seems that at least earlier that was a problem. What is the current status of one-day charts with one minute bars? If it's possible, where would I look for example code?
Thanks!

You can't presently graph/plot/render/visualize intraday data so to speak in backtest environment (assuming this is what you're asking). You can in research environment. Alternatively, you can run Lean locally with your library of choice (this is for instance viable with FX data which you can download).
