Does Quote Loader have a delay that records a stock’s closing as that of
the previous day?

    Doe MD 2024.2 work with Quote Loader any better than MD 2024.1?

    Hi Michael

    There is no difference with regard to Quote Loader if you are running MD 2024.1 or 2024.2
    Just ensure you are running the most up to date build of Quote Loader. EXTENSIONS – MANAGE EXTENSIONS – UPDATES tab. If a newer build is listed Install and restart Moneydance.
    I would also recommend for other reasons using 2024.2(5172).

    Hope this helps.

    You can also periodically check under EXTENSIONS – MANAGE EXTENSIONS – UPDATES tab.

    Hi Michael

    There is no button called UPDATE in Quote Loader build 321402.

    For information on the features of Quote Loader and how to use https://infinitekind.tenderapp.com/discussions/investments/7595-quo...

    Download the PDF’s attached to post 112 and have a read.

    To get an overview take a look at the YouTube videos by using the links on page 1 and 2 of the PDF.

    Hope this helps.

    I am using MD 2024.1 (Build 5118). Sometimes Quote Loader works with this
    version & sometimes it doesn’t.
    It is all a random process. The random
    result is best when all result are
    reported in gray and worse when a
    mix of green and red. The gray
    results actually transfer to my MD
    data files. The red/green results
    or all green, for that matter, are usually
    correct, but they do not transfer. Most
    of the time I enter data manually in
    frustration. There are other issues
    but I will bring them up at another
    time.

    How do I get Quote Loader to do the
    following two things:
    1.) report the day’s closing prices correctly and
    2.) report the day’s closing prices along
    with the correct closing day

    Hi Michael

    The first thing I would suggest is updating your build of Moneydance to 2024.2 (5172) from https://infinitekind.com/download-moneydance-personal-finance-software
    This is a free upgrade to you.

    In Quote Loader in the PARAMETERS tab tick CONSOLE MESSAGES - DETAILED.

    In Moneydance open the CONSOLE WINDOW under HELP.

    Then when you see an issue with Quote Loader post a screenshot of the full Quote Loader window after you click GET PRICES but before you click SAVE SELECTED LINES.

    Also in the CONSOLE WINDOW click SAVE and post the file you save.

    The prices Quote loader display are those obtained from the selected source, FT or Yahoo. Quote Loader does not make them up.

    After reading the PDF you will know how to open the relevant source web pages to see directly the data Quote Loader retrieves.

    The PDF also talks about current and close of day pricing.

    Hope this helps.

    I got it work, but I am not telling how. I didn’t need a new version of MD
    to do it.

    I suspect both my Apple stock app and the Yahoo daily price closings have
    a 99.99% correlation whereas volumes
    do not; these volumes, I believe, are
    pulled at different times where the Apple volume is pulled after closing
    closer to the closing time than the Yahoo is. Yahoo volumes, it would seem,
    are therefore more indicative
    of after hours trading, but most
    likely not the same as the after hours
    total daily volume for a given period
    (daily in this discussion) and a given
    stock.

    I have a new thought, but can not prove it. Can MD somehow know of
    a stock broker email I received acknowledging a recent stock
    purchase by me BEFORE I enter it
    in MD?
