Hi Gang, I just got a copy of "Stock Traders Entry Price Calculator," which was suggested by another member of this board. I tried to create a copy of the CSX example (2009) in the brief manual and so went to Yahoo Finance, both US and Canada and got totally screwy results. The daily price, open, high, and low made no sense. The close price matched the printed sample at $42.18, but the high was 14.57, the low $13.94, and open was $14.37 and the volume listed was about three times what was in the sample in the manual. So I thought, I'll try Google and could not find any listing of past prices for CSX. Maybe I was looking in the wrong place but it was the same place I used to get prices from, so who knows.

Then I went to NASDAQ and got ALMOST the same as Yahoo, except for the closing price. That aligned with daily high/low/open and the volume almost matched the Yahoo figures, only off by a few hundred out of ~15,000,000. Holy Guacamole!

Are there any sites that can be trusted?

I found this list of places but I have not tested them yet.
