Invalid TimeFrame in getbars for hourly

See original GitHub issue

Hello when I try to use the example, I get an error:

api.get_bars("AAPL", TimeFrame.Hour, "2021-02-08", "2021-02-08", limit=10, adjustment='raw').df

"""

I have opened an issue in the API issue tracker. It seems to be a problem with the API itself rather than the SDK. You can follow up that as well. Issue #178
