Historical prices for Canadian Mutual Funds

[paradiso]

I am not having any luck retrieving historical prices for Canadian MFs. I have tried most of the servers in Quote Module 420. I do not have CUSIP numbers, simply fund numbers such as Front Street Growth Fund Series A (FSC201)

Hi paradiso,

What quote server are you trying to use? If you don't know the symbol, you can use your web browser to visit the server, and look up the symbol. We have links and information on all the supported quote servers here:

You might look at Canada Stockwatch (3M Historical). See this:

There are only a handful of "historical" quote servers, you can't retrieve historical pricing from a non-historical server. Try to figure out the ticker symbol used by Canada Stockwatch for your mutual fund, and make sure they offer the quote. Then, record this symbol in your Fund Manager investment, and try retrieving from that quote server.

Yes, when I changed the symbol to the one required by Canada Stockwatch I was able to retrieve the last 3 months. Too bad it doesn't go back further.

Thank you for your excellent support!
