I have installed the extension to give me stock values and it says that the prices were downloaded today but the prices and the graphs stop at March 2017. Again where am I going wrong?

    Hi,

    Thank you for contacting us.
    Unfortunately a Yahoo support representative has confirmed that Yahoo Finance API has been discontinued.
    From the changes that have been made, it seems like Yahoo is trying to prevent people from automated downloading like Moneydance (and so many others) are doing.

    We are looking for other options which has proven difficult. The advantage of the Yahoo was that it is free.

    The current workaround is to navigate to Extensions and Select Quotes and Exchange Rates and change the Historical Security Prices to Google Finance. If certain prices are missing after that, you can download the quotes in a cvs file and import them by navigating to Tools > Securities > Edit then Import.

    You can also update the current prices through the Security Price Entry extension in the Extensions menu.
