Failed download on symbols

Open tcalbrecht opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

When I try to access this symbol, QCBMPX, I get this response:

import yfinance as yf
s = yf.download('QCBMPX', period = 'ytd', interval = '1d')

$ python test.py 
[*********************100%***********************]  1 of 1 completed

1 Failed download:
- QCBMPX: No data found for this date range, symbol may be delisted


The symbol appears on the Yahoo site and others.

https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/QCBMPX/ https://markets.ft.com/data/funds/tearsheet/historical?s=QCBMPX

Same with these; QCEQPX, QCGLPX .

Hi, are you able to access data on the Yahoo! Finance website itself ? I don't see any historical/fundamentals/etc (only last price and the ticker name) https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/QCBMPX/history?p=QCBMPX

No, there's no historical data in Yahoo that I can see.

Thanks.

Then it won't be available.

I always do a little search first say for MNKS.L to make sure that he exists. Yahoo also uses some strange naming convention at times.
