: : : : I found when I retrieve the historical data, the ver. 4.2 only allow
: : : : maximum 200 days data for retrieving, whereas there is no such problem
: : : : for ver. 4.1

: : : Hello Wang,
: : : The historical Yahoo server only will update 200 prices per request.
: : : This has always been the case with this server. In versions prior to
: : : 4.2 you could request longer date ranges, but you were only getting
: : : the first 200. To eliminate confusion about why the other later
: : : prices wouldn't be updated, we added a check to make sure you
: : : only request 200 or less at a time. In addition, 4.2 also makes sure
: : : to set the "View/Split Adjusted" option for you when retrieving from
: : : these sources. Previously, you were required to set it properly before
: : : each retrieve.

: : : Thanks,
: : : Mark

: : With the version 4.1, I get more than 200 prices updated. If the server delivers only the first 200, where do the other prices come from? Are these additional prices correct?

: In version 4.1 you should still not get more than 200 days per investment.
: You may be getting a total of more than 200 quotes, because you can get
: 200 for each open investment. Could this be the case?

: Thanks,

With Version 4.1, I get more than 200 quotes per investment.
Try to create an investment (such as MSFT) and update its prices.
You will see.

Yours
