<p>Security is SRP.L and Trade Currency is GBp(157.4000), which all looks correct when saved.</p>

Hi Mark</p>
<p>It seems Yahoo is playing games with historical data for Serco Group plc (SRP.L)</p>
<p>See screen shot of their web page.</p>
<p>It looks like they corrected the one that was wrong in your screen shot, but others are still incorrect.</p>
<p>Just to confirm as you would expect Quote Loader retrieve exactly the same prices as shown on the Yahoo web page when I ran a test just now.</p>
<p>Hope they get their act together.</p>
<p>Have Fun, Stay Safe.</p></div>derekkent23tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/484735002020-07-20T12:10:42Z2020-07-20T12:10:42ZQuote Loader and Yahoo Historical Data decimal placing<div><p>Hi Mark</p>
<p>Derek is quite correct. QL takes the currency for the security from the<br>
top of the page. In this case it is GBp (British pence). GBp is one of<br>
the recognised 'pseudo currencies', the others being GBX and ZAX, QL<br>
divides the prices in these currencies by 100. On those dates with<br>
incorrect prices I assume Yahoo reported the prices in GBP (British<br>
pounds), hence the different price. Either change them as you have been<br>
doing or delete the entry. QL will not overwrite them.<br>
