address. - Use
after_timeandbefore_timeto define the window you want. - Page through dense windows with
offsetandlimit, keepinglimitat100or below.
Best Practices ✅
- Use fixed window sizes in your backfill jobs so retries and deduplication stay simple.
- Treat
nearestPriceas a reference price, not the executed fill price. - Switch to V3 token trades if you later need owner, source, or block-range filters.
