Name	Type	Description	Optional	Returns

ignoreInvalidSymbols	Bool	ignore error when fetch prices for unsupported assets. Empty Map will be returned for this asset	true
ignoreCache	Bool	refetch the entire price history, ignoring existent cached values	true
runtimeCache	Map	storage for runtime cache	true
getRuntimeCacheKey	Function	get key to access runtime cache	true

Returns

Object with Maps with prices Maps by asset ticker. prices Map keyed by timestamp in milliseconds. historicalPricesMap includes prices from cache fetchedPricesMap includes only assets fetched from server. If asset had cache but new prices fetched from server this Map includes combined data
