Harry,
On Yahoo page, below the current day prices you will find
link "Historical prices". Follow it and there you can specify "from"
and "to" dates for the data you are interested in.
I tested it for BMW stocks traded on different exchanges.
MSFeed downloader loaded prices from Yahoo for all of them.

I went to the links for some of the countries noted, and all I could
find was "current day".

trade on some of these exchanges? For example, Germany has 9
exchanges listed, Spain has 5, etc.

peace of mind came for $25 from msfeed.com.Didn't try to download non-
US data, though... I wonder if Reuters would keep finding people who
pay $35 MONTHLY for stocks data...

(http://www.trading-tools.com/mld.htm). $45 if I remember rightly,
downloads current day's quotes and historical data for all stocks on
Yahoo's server. Also does real-time for US & Canadian stocks from
quote.com, but I haven't tried that. I just use it to keep EOD UK
data up to date in Metastock. Works a treat :-) I figured, I could
probably develop my own solution to dl from Yahoo, in fact I was half
way to programming one using AutoIt and a command-line utility that
grabs web pages, but it took too long and I thought my time was worth
more than $45. As a one off payment for a lifetime's worth of EOD
stock data (well for as long as Yahoo provides it anyway), I thought
it was worth it. Brendan-----Original Message-----

about 11:30 PM eastern time on the trading day. Metaquote gives you
an option of data suppliers, and one is Prophet. I can download from
Prophet about 7:00-7:30 PM eastern time on the trading day. In fact,
this is earlier than my "for pay" data supplier.
