You will see the 5:25 candle which is built using five 1minute candles from 5:25-5:30.

If you request at 5:29 then you will be getting the last candle which is built using available candles which is four 1minute candles.

We don't recommend using Historical data API for live strategies. It is provided for backtesting purpose only. For live strategies, I would suggest generating candles at your end using the live market data provided using Websockets.
