Quote Loader appears to be stuck on May 5th. Will not update securities prices.

    For me the gaps are isolated to tickets with Yahoo HD as the source, and even that was hit or miss yesterday (7th). Today nothing with Yahoo HD is working. FT HD is fine.

    I would suggest you look in the Investment Forum you will find many topics there on the problem.

    Had same problem with Yahoo. Switched to FT. No error, but prices for my mutual funds are back to May 5. On FT website, if I look up a fund, it give the price from May 5, two days ago. Something has changed that causes Yahoo to fail, and FT to just report old prices.

    Same issue here. Stopped working today, no prices coming in, and stuck on May 8. This must be a Yahoo issue?

    I seem to have a more basic issue.

    QL no longer allows me to select which currencies to select. The Select check boxes are missing.

    Also, if I look at the history of any of my Cryptos, the lastest update was 27 April

    Hi paulgbutleruk

    Part of your problem is FT does not support crypto currencies. It should return normal exchange rates. See screenshot. As a test I added the crypto currency ATOM- to see if perhaps this stopped Quote Loader from working. At least in my test it still works.

    Hi Derekkent23,
    I have ATOM configured similarly, but I think the problem is somewhere else.

    You seem to have the issue of the missing select checkbox against the Crypto.

    If I look back at the history of say, Bitcoin, I have history going back to 2018. I have used quote loader for a number of years, but it stopped working last month.

    As you can see the cryptos last got a price on 27/4/2025.

    Any debug help would be appreciated.

    Paul

    Hi paulgbutleruk

    As I explained FT does not support crypto currencies. So with Yahoo down there is no way that Quote Loader can return crypto currencies exchange rates.

    Your last screenshot shows exactly what I would expect. As no Crypto Currency rates were returned there associated selection boxes do not appear.

    Set all crypto currency lines to DON’T LOAD or set then so they don’t appear in the Quote Loader window.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Derek,
    Ok, I tried all options FT, Yahoo, Yahoo HD and Alphvantage. None will return Crypto prices.

    This definitely worked up to a month ago. So, do none of the sources now support cryptos? Or was it only Yahoo that supported them, and that option is currently down?

    Regards, Paul

    Only Yahoo supports Crypto.

    It's not just crypto. It seems to do mutual funds OK, but is having
    trouble with specific stocks. In my case it's PRU that is no longer
    updated. Yahoo finance has valid updates, but the extension is no longer
    finding it.

    Hi Bob

    Set source to FT and enter the ticker PRU:NYO into the Alt Ticker box

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks for reaching out, but no luck. It gives me a quote that's under $10
    in lieu of the current price which is over $100.

    So, to be clear.

    It seems that there is no longer a way to sync crypto prices with Moneydance until Quote Loader finds a way to work again with Yahoo?

    Paul :-(

    Great, Sort of working with Yahoo.

    Still a couple of issues:

    3 of my cryptos are failing - NEAR, FLARE and MUSE. I can't find a definitive list of the ticker symbols to use.
    For most of them I am using the ticker with a -
    For example : Bitcoin works if I use BTC-

    Does anyone have a link to a site with a working set of crypto tickers that work with QL?

    One other thing I noticed is that whilst the trade date show today's date, the Price Date is still locked in at 27 May. I don't think the price is being updated, QL seems to fail to update the Price Date.

    Looking at the currency history, it is also not showing any price after 27 May.

    So, we are now going off to Yahoo, but I am not sure the new values are coming back and getting added to MD correctly.

    Thanks, Paul

    Hi Paul

    From your screen shots it looks like you are clicking GET PRICES and are not completing the process by clicking SELECT ALL LINES (or selecting the individual lines you want to save) followed by clicking SAVE SELECTED LINES.

    As for your 3 cryptos as I assume your base currency is GBP Yahoo does not support these. Adding USD e.g. FLR-USD does not help, even though Yahoo does support the 3 cryptos related to USD.

    It is possible to treat the cryptos as an investment. Create a Security with a ticker FLR-USD, its currency GBP, buy one share. As you already have the exchange rate for USD then the traded currency of USB should be converted to Pounds for the New Price.
    See screen shot.
