Exchange Rates updater, but it can't fetch any at all.</p>
<p>It's worked in the past, but I haven't tried it for a couple of
months as the values were often temporarily wrong by a factor of
100.</p>
<p>It can fetch current quotes for most of my funds (from Yahoo
USA), but when trying to fetch historical prices it gets 404 errors
from both Yahoo UK and USA, and 400 "Bad Request" errors from
Google.</p>
<p>I've tried with Moneydance 2015.7 and 2015.8.</p>
<p>Example ticker symbols: GB0001615102, GB00B59G4Q73,
GB00BLT1YS69, all on the London Exchange.</p></div>philtag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/406658582016-09-02T22:58:25Z2016-09-02T22:58:25ZQuotes and Exchange Rates can't fetch any history<div><p>Phil</p>
<p>Are you certain you were ever able to get prices and history for
mutual fund symbols such as GB0001615102. It is my understanding
the Yahoo stopped making data available for download for UK mutual
funds back in 2011.</p>
<p>For example if you go here:<br>
<a href="http://finance.yahoo.com/quote/GB0001615102.L/history?p=GB0001615102.L">
http://finance.yahoo.com/quote/GB0001615102.L/history?p=GB0001615102.L</a></p>
<p>and click the "Download data" link, Yahoo will respond with a
404 not found.</p>

funds (it's possible some/all of those examples weren't ones that
worked previously) because earlier in the year the data would
occasionally, and temporarily, be wrong: <a href="http://help.infinitekind.com/discussions/investments/992-odd-data-from-quotes-and-exchange-rates-extension">

<p>I do not believe that Yahoo finance supports this ticker any
longer. The extesnion works by retrieving a downloadable file made
available by Yahoo. Over the last few years Yahoo has been
shrinking the support available for non-US securities.</p>

extension. Yahoo USA/UK does not support many non- US security
prices. Time to update the quotes and exchange rate extension. Add
Bloomberg Stock and Financial Times Stock. For me Financial Times
would provide the best results. Also adding the ability to select a
different download institutions for each security would improve my
hit rate. Make this extension global and support your non USA
users! This would make this Moneydance feature equal to that
provided by Banktree. By the way, other than this feature,
Moneydance is a far superior software.</p></div>derekkent23
