Hello Terry,
For Non US stocks,{or
atleast for Indian Stocks as I have seen} its not possible. I just
tried it out once again and it returned me data for a stock from 24th Feb 2004
whereas I had asked for data from 1-1-1995 (Scrip has been listed for more than
25 years now).
Even on the site, it gives data (when
using Download CSV) for a period of 200 days only. You may try out ACC.BO (Scrip
code for Associated Cements Limited) or any of the Non-US stocks whose code you
may know of (Indices excluded since you can get data for them at a single
time).
Cheers
Prashanth

This is when
using the Yahoo website. Using Amiquote, you specify your own dates and you
get all the data at once. You can also get all the data from the website by
setting to/from data, scroll to the bottom and choose download csv.

Hello
Al,
When Importing data from Yahoo for
stocks which are not Indices nor US Listed, Yahoo at a time gives data for 200
days only. Hence you have to change the From and To date settings to Import
the data you want. Normally what I do is give From & To date settings for
6 months at a time and keep on changing the same until my required history has
been downloaded.
Regards
Prashanth

Subject: [amibroker] Importing Canadian
stocks
Hi, all:
Having always been a
QP3 plugin user, I have never needed to use Amiquote since first owning AB.
But recently, I became interested in some Canadian stocks that I
cannot get using QP3. So, after creating a .tls file, I tried
importing 10 years of historical data for a list of tickers traded on
the TSE. However, I only got 11 months of data imported rather than 10
years. I followed the help file exactly, and I know that many of the
symbols go back more than 11 months. So, what am I doing wrong? I
noticed that the symbols appear in my QP3 database. Is this correct,
or should they be stored in the AB local database? Does it matter
where they are stored? I'm importing from Yahoo. Thanks for any help
anyone can give.
Al Venosa
