An alternative approach would be to use a procedure similar to that described in Chow, G. C. and Lin, A.-l. (1971). Best linear unbiased interpolation, distribution, and extrapolation of time series by related series, The Review of Economics and Statistics 53(4): 372 – 75.

This is of course only relevant if levels are important, and the time series is in absolute values. If it is a percentage, the geo-mean would be the correct (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_mean#...

Apache Cassandra would be a good fit for storing real-time intraday data. It's a partitioned row store, where rows are organized into table using a partition key. It you use a schema where you store data for one ticker per row with partitioning by day or month (it has a limit of 2B records in a row), the operations in your questions would be very performant....
