This is NOT a problem of AmiQuote, but a problem with YAHOO FINANCE.

It is always good idea to go to Yahoo Finance and check by yourself
the symbol you have problems with.

So just enter DCO.CO on Yahoo Finance and you will see:
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/hp?s=DCO.CO

.... that Yahoo DOES NOT have data for DCO.CO older than 16 Feb.

So... please complain directly to  Yahoo Finance
