I recently opened a retirement investment account at TIAA. My portfolio includes several TIAA mutual funds with security ID names like QCBMRX, QCEQRX,QCGRRX, and QCSTRX. I'm downloading daily price using the recently modified extension that get prices through Alphavantage. The prices for my TIAA investments do not download. The prices of all of my non-TIAA investments download without problem. Am I doing something wrong? Are others having problems with TIAA prices? Is there a fix?

    I am not support staff, just a user.

    It appears that Alpha Vantage does not support your TIAA Mutual Funds
    However, there is a free stand-alone program that does. See screen shot.

    Many Moneydance users are now using this free stand-alone program that was originally developed to help out users of MS Money when Microsoft stopped supporting that product. The program is in java, like Moneydance and thus runs on Windows, Mac and Linux computers. The developer has adapted it to work with Moneydance and is actively supporting the program. This program is very stable and the quotes very consistent with the option of two sources, not Alpha Vantage. No strange prices. It has a lot of useful features. These include, obtaining prices from many stocks and fund quoted on different exchanges, US, Canada, UK, Europe and Australia to name but a few. More features in the pipeline. Provide a means for importing all this data into Moneydance. You can also import exchange rates along with your security prices, if required.

    Take a look at his thread and download the PDF outlining how to use the program and link to download the program. Post 77 in this thread.

    Let us know how this program performs for you.

    It’s a good idea to click on the “SUBSCRIBE TO UPDATES” button to you are cheap up to date including when new builds are available.

    Hope this helps.
