Why do you provide quantmod::getSymbols 
the word fecha in the from argument, 
instead of the variable created on the 
previous line?

The from argument is not a valid in 
getQuote.

Yes, as Rui says, log(aaa[,-1]) returns 
something here at least, but diffing on 
lag=250 just returns an empty list 
because the one-line aaa[,-1] df is only 
7 elements long.

Yes, because the first column is a 
POSIXct:

        > str(aaa)
        'data.frame':   1 obs. of  8 variables:
         $ Trade Time: POSIXct, format:  ...
         $ Last      : num 7.14
         $ Change    : num 0
         $ % Change  : num 0
         $ Open      : num 7
         $ High      : num 7.16
         $ Low       : num 6.99
         $ Volume    : int 794567
        > aaa
                        Trade Time  Last Change
        ACX.MC 2020-07-24 17:35:10 7.136      0
               % Change Open  High  Low Volume
        ACX.MC        0    7 7.162 6.99 794567
