For EOD.
QuotesPlus is the only AB supported provider who has fundamental data (US stocks only?). It is years since I tried their service but I think they have some history, on the fly, and you can save to local database as well .... I think they also have an historical base to get you started. Well integrated with AB (AB has functions to reference the QP Fdata).
QP also has its own addons, which some users like e.g. scanning tools etc.
If you want delisted stocks have a look at Norgate (I think they have div adjusted data to, for commercial level customers). Also well integrated with AB and Richard follows this forum so he will answer and occasional question here. Richard is very knowledgeable on all things data and has made an extra effort with stock classification.
