Calculating the yf.download function in a pandas column

[iiivasyaiii]

Hello!
The script downloads stock quotes from Yahoo Finance (module yfinance). Then it downloads the quarterly option chain. Then the script calculates and adds the lower and upper strike columns and the lower and upper option ticker columns. In the penultimate line, the script adds the option Close price column from the 'Call_lower_ticker' column to the date from Stocks.index (using the yf.download function).
Everything works correctly until the penultimate line: Stocks['Call_lower_price'] = Stocks['Call_lower_ticker'].apply(yf.download(['Call_lower_ticker'], start=Stocks.index)['Close'].iloc[0])

1. How do I make the function work?
2. And is it possible to download historical data for yf.option.chain?

Code:
`%%time
import yfinance as yf
import pandas as pd
import warnings
import datetime
warnings.filterwarnings("ignore", message="The 'unit' keyword in TimedeltaIndex construction is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. Use pd.to_timedelta instead.", category=FutureWarning, module="yfinance.utils")

Stocks=yf.download('SPY', period="1y", interval="1d", group_by='ticker')

stock = yf.Ticker('SPY')
Expirations = stock.options
options_chain = stock.option_chain('2024-09-20')
Calls_desk=options_chain.calls

Stocks['110_for_Call'] = Stocks['Close']*1.1
Stocks['Call_lower_strike'] = Stocks['110_for_Call'].apply(lambda x: Calls_desk.iloc[Calls_desk[Calls_desk['strike'] < x]['strike'].idxmax()]['strike'])
Stocks['Call_upper_strike'] = Stocks['110_for_Call'].apply(lambda x: Calls_desk.iloc[Calls_desk[Calls_desk['strike'] > x]['strike'].idxmin()]['strike'])
Stocks['Call_lower_ticker'] = Stocks['110_for_Call'].apply(lambda x: Calls_desk.iloc[Calls_desk[Calls_desk['strike'] < x]['strike'].idxmax()]['contractSymbol'])
Stocks['Call_upper_ticker'] = Stocks['110_for_Call'].apply(lambda x: Calls_desk.iloc[Calls_desk[Calls_desk['strike'] > x]['strike'].idxmin()]['contractSymbol'])
Stocks['Call_lower_price'] = Stocks['Call_lower_ticker'].apply(yf.download(['Call_lower_ticker'], start=Stocks.index)['Close'].iloc[0])
Stocks`

Your question is for StackOverflow.

I will ask this question there. But it seems to me that this is related to the behavior of the yf.download function. I do not understand in what format the parameters should be passed to yf.download?

And the second question: is it possible to download historical data for yf.option.chain?

Your first question is about Pandas & lambdas not yfinance. download accepts a list of symbols.
