Google Finance recently made fundamental changes to their service. It no longer provides for individual portfolios, and has removed mutual funds from its searches.

Are any of the data sources for downloading prices on AceMoney working? If so, which?

Many thanks

Yahoo works fine for me. Have you using the latest version (4.36.4)?

Hi, Yahoo (UK) stopped working but has started again. I did eventually get Bloomberg to work but it is a bit of a pain having to look up and switch the symbols. Is there a reason why the data source stops providing the data - or AceMoney can't read the source?

Yes, I'm on 4.36.4.

Thanks for replying.

Can now finally download prices from Yahoo after updating to version 4.36.4.0. BUT since November with the loss of Google Finance, the "change" column in portfolio view shows only losses. All gains come up zeros. My bottom line in each investment value is correct and percentage gain/loss seems to be correct.
