Re: limit to 200 quotes

Bonjour Louis.

You seem to suggest that this is "strange". That is not new. I was testing downloading batches of Yahoo! quotes a year or two ago and ran into that. As for downloading, yes you are limited to "200" or something and you have to write multiple scripts to get the data going back further - little math and perhaps some acceptance of "bad pages" (assuming the data doesn't go that far back).

I think the only issue is, when they split/consolidate stocks, you have to either "pass" your own data with the conversion, (ouch for rounding) or download all Yahoo! history for the stock again.

So what tools are you using to grab this stuff (the techie side)... me wants to know.

..Sexy oooooooooh Baby ... uh huh.. yeah.. that's right..
