Adjusted price from Free Quotes (yahoo or google finance)  [SOLVED]

I would like to get the adjusted price (including open, high, low, and close) from Free Quotes (for example, Yahoo Finance or Google Finance, etc). Please advise me how to do that. Thank you so much.

Hello edwardho,

MultiCharts is a trading platform that doesn’t come with any prebuilt real-time data feed. The only feed available right after installation is Free Quotes. That is free end-of-day historical bars coming from Yahoo and Google servers in the format ASCII files. More info here.

My question is, I can only get unadjusted price from free quote data source. Since Yahoo provides adjusted price, can I get the adjusted price to do the backtest as well?

There is no configurations what type of data to request from Free Quotes vendors at the moment. If what you need does not come from Yahoo and Google into MC directly (using Free Quotes), then the only solution for you is to find the required data in ASCII files in internet and import them into QuoteManager symbols.

Thank you so much for the reply.

One more question, if I use paid data provider (for example, IQfeed, etc), how do I download adjusted price to MC?

Please contact them directly first to find out if they provide such data through API for MC and if they do, what is the exact symbol name.
