WSJ versus Yahoo

Hi Tim M,
Previously Yahoo was much faster, as it retrieved 10 quotes in a single request. It looks like we're going to have to change Yahoo, so it is only able to get 1 quote/request. The speed will likely be similar, or a bit slower than WSJ. The WSJ server also requires that you have the investment "type" set properly in order to get a quote.
Hi danmcco,
Yahoo (Options) is still working.
Hi danmcco,
Yahoo (Options) is the only quote server I'm aware of that offers option quotes.
Hi Sean,
It is usually clear, just based on what the investment is, but you can also tell by looking at the URL on the WSJ site. For examples, see: https://www.fundmanagersoftware.com/intrtv.html#WSJ
Hi Mark
Thanks for the new quote module. Yahoo price quotes are now much slower for my portfolios of UK stocks. But as I only usually did an end of day update I can live with it. I thought I might try WSJ and Google price updates for separate sub portfolios (UK stocks): 1. Google: This seems to work fine without changing the symbol BUT you have to change the price factor as it prices in pence as opposed to Yahoo in £ 2. WSJ: I could not get this to work for UK stocks. I tried changing the symbol to UK: xxx and UK. xxx with the type "stock"
