New Quote Loader Problem

22 Jan, 2025 10:35 PM

Hi - After missing all year end prices at 12/31/2024, Quote Loader started working again on January 2, 2025. Then it stopped working again on January 17, 2025. I updated the extension, tried manually grabbing prices, but nothing is updating the security price history file. What am I missing this time?

    Hi

    I think you are saying there are gaps in a securities Currency/Security History table. Quote Loader can only retrieve the data that exist on the source web site. If the source later fills in the gaps Quote Loader does not retrieve old data to fill in the gaps.
    Take a look at page 14 section RETRIEVING HISTORICAL DATA of the PDF attached to post 112 at https://infinitekind.tenderapp.com/discussions/investments/7595-quo...
    This section also explains a workaround to fill in gaps.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Dave,
    Thank you for contacting Moneydance support.

    I can see you’ve received a reply from one of our knowledgeable Moneydance customers, and it appears you’ve been given all the information you need.
    We appreciate derekkent23 very much for sharing this useful information.

    Please note that the Quote Loader is a third party extension.
    So, I've added the Quote Loader developer ( Mike Bray) to this discussion who will be able to provide further insights.

    Please keep us posted on your progress, Thank you!

    Hi Dave

    I am surprised you don't want to use Moneydance because Quote Loader is
    not supported by TIK. There is a small group of knowledgeable users
    that can answer any queries you have. Quote Loader has been historically
    very stable. The only issues we have had is when the source web sites
    are changed. Yahoo.com has been particularly troublesome in the last
    year. I normally overcome the issues within a couple of weeks.

    As Derek has stated Quote Loader can only load the data that is
    available on the source web sites. There were some issues with Yahoo
    over the New Year where certain prices were not loaded. Quote Loader
    loaded the prices available.

    Regards
    Mike (Quote Loader author)
