  1. Thanks everyone first here!

    Newbie question: Do you know where I can get this kind of website where I can download the data to my excel application? Are there such kind of free data feeding? or I have to pay for it? Just historical data.

    Please give me some help on this. Thank you so much.
     
  2. why is nobody willing to help me. Is it because this is a newbie's question? Please. I really need you guys' help.

    You can get it through Redi, Realtick, Esignal, QLink etc...

    I know of no free sources.
     
  4. Well, excuuuuuuuse me. Sorry for keeping you waiting for nearly 50 minutes. I'll drag myself away from Sigourney Weaver's excellent performance in Copycat and start searching the web for answers to your question.

    Oh, you're welcome.

    (50 minutes... still looking for answers after 50 years)

    it depends, what type of data you need.
    if you need EOD -you can get it from yahoo,if you need minutes and you have Omega Prosuite-you can download from historybank.com and export in excel or you can download from omega ftp server and try to convert this data.
    next time try to be more specific.
