Yet again Yahoo has broken the Quote Loader feed. This is because some of our users have abused the service. Quote loader was written to support the typical Moneydance user who needed up to date prices on their investments once a day or week, not for people with huge portfolios who update the prices several times a day to watch the price changes.

I have been changing Quote Loader to circumvent these changes by Yahoo, however, that is coming to an end. I have been supporting Moneydance for over 10 years, for free. I no longer wish to do this. I will be making my code available via the Moneydance Open repository for anyone who wishes to take this up. I suggest that someone build a new source based on the Market Data API (https://www.marketdata.app/tutorials/) and let people choose how much they pay for their prices.

    Throttling yahoo is not optional. It’s a fixed rate per minute.
