Is there any chance of getting the Financial Times as a server, it holds lots oF Funds?

On FT, historical prices are availaible only for subscribers I think.

I am a FT subscriber, indeed the list of funds is great, complete I think (the data are provided to FT by Morningstar).

Hello,

I was able to view historical prices without a subscription for a couple of sample US funds. Maybe it allows it for a short period of time, I'm not sure. It does look like a good server to consider adding.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi progers1947 and Djobydjoba,

We've added Financial Times as a new quote server to FM 2018. See the instructions and details here.
Thanks,
Mark

Wow! Great, thanks!

1) A question: used as Historical Quote Server, there is no date range prompt when an historical retrieve is launch. 1 month is retrieved automatically. So this server can be used equally as a Quote Server and as an Historical Quote Server, is that it?

2) Just to point out the details section of this new server is wrongly alphabetically located (your link just above)

Hi Djobydjoba,

1) Yes, it will always retrieve the last 1 month's worth of prices. You will not be prompted for a date range, no matter whether it is assigned as the primary or historical quote server. It is a bit different...

2) Thank you, that has now been fixed.
Thanks,
Mark
