I've found that data returned by Kraken's OHLC API function is highly inconsistent. It is clear that the data returned by the API for "committed" (historical data) frames changes over time. Often by very large amounts!

To demonstrate this, I ran two identical API calls (simply using my web browser) approximately one minute apart. See the screenshots below. I would have expected committed/historical OHLC frames to remain static over time, but this is not the case. Am I doing something wrong or misunderstanding how this is supposed to work?
