# 📅 Date Range Explanation:
# The range operator (-5..1) generates a sequence of integers from -5 to 1.
# Each integer represents a day offset from the current date:
#   - -5 means 5 days ago
#   - -4 means 4 days ago
#   - ...
#   - 0 means today
#   - 1 means tomorrow
# This allows us to fetch data for multiple days in one loop.
