/v1/hyperliquid/trades/{symbol} or /v1/lighter/trades/{symbol} instead. Get historical trades using cursor-based pagination. This is the same as /v1/trades/{symbol} with cursor pagination (which is now the default). This endpoint is maintained for backwards compatibility and explicit cursor-only usage.
