Publisher's description
From BragIt :StockXloader is a native Mac OS X application for fully automated downloading of stock market quotes and indexes to the technical analysis program ProTA or ProTA Gold from BeeSoft (http://beesoft.net) -- effectively building an arbitrarily large database of tickers containing historical quotes for the open/high/low/close of each day!
- It collects quotes from Yahoo! Finance for almost any stock exchange in the world.
- The downloaded information is imported into the database of ProTA.
You can try out a full and completely uncrippled version of StockXloader for evaluation up to 60 days -- try before you buy! Read more about StockXloader on the product page.
Features of StockXloader include:
- The system treats daily quotes and historical daily quotes of stocks, mutual funds and indexes.
- For a list of Yahoo tickers, you can download historical quotes for all those tickers many years back in time! And you can download the quotes for today, even if there are hundreds of tickers!
- StockXloader keeps four "region" lists -- "EU", "US", "A" and "X" -- that you can fill with tickers from almost any stock exchange in the world.
- StockXloader keeps track of the last date you successfully downloaded data for each region (really got some data, not just attempted a download!).
- StockXloader provides you with very detailed progress information concerning how the download and conversion proceeds, what is currently being processed, missing dates, empty tickers, error conditions etcetera.
- For Yahoo historical quotes, StockXloader warns you about those tickers that do not have any data or do not have as recent quotes as the most recent ticker has.
- It verifies fields to find out what the latest date is where you really got some data, and all dates are converted into a format that is independent of your preferred date format in ProTA. The format is also independent of your chosen decimal separator (period or comma).
- The full security names and type codes are obtained from the ticker files, so that ProTA can create new ticker symbols automatically in the right categories with full security names.
What's new in this version:
- Fixes a problem in Tiger that prevented downloads if this was the first time StockXloader was used. (The problem was caused by a change in 3.4.4, which worked flawlessly on Leopard, but an old bug in the Tiger OS caused problems there.)
- New feature: A new menu item and shortcut in the Tools menu that does the same as clicking the Download button.
