Mutual funds on Google - price retrieval problem

General questions about using Fund Manager that do not fit into any other forum.

Postby shucksan » Thu Oct 28, 2010 1:26 pm

Hello,

I am trying to get prices downloaded using google historical and have the current 10.8 eval version (personal). I am trying to get prices on this symbol
MUTF_CA:TDB900

I have tried all sorts of variations on it and when I look this up through the google search it finds the symbol.
I have also ensured that the get prices flag is set.

Suggestions for what I am doing wrong?

thanks for any help,
S

Hi shucksan,

Unfortunately, Google (Historical) isn't offering this quote in the required CSV download format. For example, if you go here:

http://www.google.com/finance/historical?q=INTC

You will see a "Download to spreadsheet" link on the right. This is where Fund Manager is trying to get historical pricing. However, if you look at the quote you need, it is not showing this link:

http://www.google.com/finance/historica ... _CA:TDB900

You may want to try a different quote server. For links to all of the supported serves, please see:

Thanks,

try ""Bloomberg" quote server.
Will need to look up the symbol as they use a different method for classification.
