Twelve Data provides market data for stocks, forex, ETFs, indices, and crypto through one API, with technical indicators computed server-side.

Access is over REST and WebSocket, with fundamentals and reference data alongside prices. SDKs are available in several languages. The free tier is rate-limited, which is the main constraint when backfilling long historical series.
