Like you mention, it only imports the last price not the high/low/volume.
I did not mention that.
There are two approaches:
- The well documented within Quicken approach importing only closing prices using a simpler format of: Ticker, price, date. I believe that is also flexible enough that Ticker, date, price can work.
- Using a more complex syntax with hi, lo, and volume data included among a series of dashes. That is a singularly defined sequence as far as I know and not formally documented by Quicken.
I did say that the first approach is often quite adequate; that the hi, lo, and volume data are of little to no value within Quicken.
In my experience, both approaches work correctly when the import csv file is setup correctly. I am not in a position to identify what is wrong with your more inclusive csv file.

Hi Ps56k2,
AVGO.NE works for Yahoo but not Quicken. Changed the symbol from AVGO to AVGO.NE in the security details, then requested historical prices for the past month, but nothing changed.

If you look at other threads on this forum … NEO doesn't currently support Q, which may be the issue here.

Hi NotACPA,
I've come to the same conclusion going through various threads. I'm reluctantly importing the prices via .CSV, however, after editing the downloaded file from to the "symbol. closing price, —-, date. —-,high, low, volume/00, *" as suggested in the thread
only the closing price for the first date is imported,not hi, low, volume or other dates.

See if this FAQ clears up anything.
Note that the hi/lo/vol data is not very valuable and the more common csv structure of
Ticker, close, mm/dd/yyyy
Is probably easier to get working.

Hi q_lurker
The link you provided is one of the threads I checked. Like you mention, it only imports the last price not the high/low/volume. At the moment, it's better than nothing if importing a lot of historical data.
