: Hi Mark,

: What an excellent service this is!

: Just looking at FM for use in the UK. I've managed to get a few sample prices from Yahoo UK (for e.g. BARC.L), but have been unable to download any historical prices from the Yahoo(Historical) server.

: Is this because of the Yahoo UK extension changes mentioned in a recent posting?

: Any suggestions for downloading UK historical prices?

: An alternative source of quotes I use is www.iii.co.uk. You need to be registered and to log in before the quotes are available, but is this feasible as an alternative source?

: Regards,

: Bryan.

Hi Bryan,
The Yahoo-UK server only provides current quotes, it has no historical
quotes. The Yahoo (Historical) server offers historical quotes for
only US stocks/funds/indices. We don't have a server that offers historical
quotes for the UK market. You can however download/import historical
prices from MarketEye. Please see our Tips & Tricks page at:

for more specifics on this. Currently we cannot support any quote server
that requires registration. This feature is not built into FM.

Thanks,
Mark
