Re: [GNC-dev] old online Quotes

Daily prices for a long period of time can increase the size of a file pretty 
significantly. I don't recall what my own results were when I pruned my price 
db and replaced it with monthly numbers, but I do remember a dip in size. 
Whether that size affects anything in regular use is another thing altogether.

Hi Snehal,

Possibly adding daily prices for 7 years would have an unwanted effect on the 
size of the database or the performance…
Perhaps monthly may be all that is required, or only add those prices to a 
one-off database?

There are a few external projects that do this as well, although they are at 
this point rather dated, and may not work in the current environment. There is 
something on the wiki about these.

Not directly. You can get historical prices from yahoo or alpha vantage as a 
CSV and then import it into GnuCash with File>Import>Import Prices From a CSV 
File.
