Can you tell me how you're getting historical EOD
data for the ASX. I choose Yahoo Historical in AmiQuote drop-down list box, and
From/To date back to 1970, 1900 or whatever you like, but Amiquote only
downloads 200 bars of ASX data (approx Sep 2002 onwards). What am
I doing wrong?
Perhaps this ties in with the YAHOO web site which
normally only displays 200 bars of data at any one time?

historical data
Thanks MichaelJust did the download using amiquote,
luckily as time goes back the numberof stocks reduces. Not a quick task,
but worth it as I can at least findwhere I have holes in my data, and
provided the price is above 50cents thenthe prices should be ok. Shame
about only 2 decimal places as this negatesany useful data below 50 cents.
(need 3 decimal places for that)Found doing it in 9 month slabs did
the job without any problems, and thedata goes back to Jan 1981, although
pre 1991 there was no Open prices justlisted equal to the days close, so
either there were total Doji days, or theopen=close. ;-) Guess no open
prices were recorded then.What I found of slight interest is that you
could almost tell the bullmarket times, or maybe just the pre-crash times
as the number of stockslisting during certain years was greater than in
between times. Eg 1981/82then 1985/86 and 1998/99 were particular periods
when a lot of stocks leftthe list as I downloaded backwards, ie their
listing dates.As an aside I found amiquote very good to use, provided
you read the yahoogroup messages to determine the settings for download
data request delaysetc.Now if someone could direct me to a site
for pre-1981 ASX data, and one with3 decimal places I would be most
grateful.Cheers,Graham<A
