I get stock prices about 12 issues from Yahoo. I would like to learn how to get prices on futures too from Stock Browser and I believe that it is possible. I have been trying but without success so far. If you wish I can try to explain the set up for stock prices.

Where do you get the prices from. Are they from a paid site or available on a freebie basis? Since I only follow 3 stocks (you don't want to know why) and about 30 futures, I'm primarily interested in futures prices.

Guy

It allows you make list of stocks and in one request download the day's prices on those stocks. This include high, low, last, open and volume. This as far as I have accomplished presently.

I checked their web site. I must have missed some earlier posts, but what
does XS4ALL or whatever it's called, do?

John,
If necessary, I can help you with the translations (I am Dutch).
