How to get today's crypto data using yfinance

Question

I am trying to predict the future of crypto currencys using the yfinance package in python. I use yf.download("crypto-name", start = "2020-06-24" , end = dt.datetime.now() ) to get a crypto price. However, the given prices do not include today's date.

In the example below, today's date is 2022-2-7. But the data stops at 2022-2-6.

How can I get today's data?

Answer 1

#!pip install yfinance
import yfinance as yf
import datetime as dt

start = dt.datetime(2020,1,1)
end = dt.datetime.now()

eth = yf.download('ETH', start, end)

or

#!pip install pandas_datareader
import pandas_datareader as web
import datetime as dt

start = dt.datetime(2020,1,1)
end = dt.datetime.now()

ltc = web.DataReader('LTC-USD', 'yahoo', start, end)
