Re: Historical Data

Trading Reference Links

This is the Yahoo Historical download page:
http://chart.yahoo.com/t?a=01&b=01&c=77&d=12&e=31&f=98&g=d&s=&y=0&z=f
You can reverse the order of the dates in MetaStock's Downloader.  I don't
know if it matters when you import ASCII using the Downloader.

I prefer to use QuoteMonster:
http://xmlworks.com/quotemonster/
QuoteMonster can download Yahoo EOD prices.  I haven't used it for awhile
because I use QP but it should still work.  You must install PERL before
using QuoteMonster.  Make sure you install PERL into a subfolder.
