# Batch Historical

> Provides batched historical OHLCV (Open, High, Low, Close, Volume) data for multiple futures instruments within a specified date range, including timestamps, price levels, and trading volumes across exchanges.

<Accordion title="BitMEX Volume Calculation Warning">
  <Warning>
    BitMEX’s `volume` field represents the **number of contracts traded**, not the volume in the base asset.

    To obtain the correct volume, users must adjust for **contract size** using the `underlyingToPositionMultiplier` from our [Reference endpoint](/http/md/futures-exchanges-reference).

    For details on this calculation and how to retrieve the correct values, see our [Changelog Update](/changelog/bitmex-volume-mapping).
  </Warning>
</Accordion>

<Warning>
  The maximum time range (difference between `startDate` and `endDate`) is:

  * 62 days of daily, hourly or minutely data
  * This endpoint only stores the most recent 62 days of data.
  * Queries with a startDate older than 62 days from the current date will result in a 410 error.

  In order to get more than the maximum allowed, you can use the Historical endpoint found [here](/http/md/futures-ohlcv) .
</Warning>

<Note>
  If you omit `startDate` and `endDate`, the API will return the most recent 62 days of daily data (not data older than 62 days from the current date).
</Note>
