    the datafeeder 2.9.0 does not work correctly any more !
    i use it to download 1 min intraday data as text files for a selected list of stocks, every evening.

    today, it downloaded just 2 stocks i/day data and stopped working.
    i tried it several times. each time it just downloaded data for only 2 stocks.

    please look into this and resolve.

    thanks.

  20. Data Feeder is not functioning as we click on 1 or 5 min back fill Data Feeder GUI disappears from the screen instantly

  21. Rajandaran Sir, All yahoo intraday downloader programs stopped working. May intraday data structure changed from yahoo finance. Please help.

    1. Yahoo Api’s are not changed probably yahoo might had put some restriction on the number of queries each day which makes such datafeeder software unusable.
