Data Tool Products.....Suggestions?

[Grizzums]

I am looking to get a data tool product for inputting historical data into excel.....does anyone have any suggestions for a good (relatively) inexpensive product...?

I am currently looking into XLQ which goes for about $80....has anyone ever used this (XLQ) and do you like it?

Any/all suggestions would be much appreciated...tia

Thanks thad. To answer your question about pennies... Nope, not really, but then again, I'm not really following specific equities in general, for the most part.

That co. Looks to offer a full trading platform that coincides with ms excel. I'm not looking for a platform but just a tool that can input historical data into my excel spreadsheets that I create as I work on learning how to come up with my own models.

I appreciate your help.

Hi Grizzums
I am not too sure that I understand what you are looking for (can you ask it in Italian? LOL)

Presuming you like to download a spreadsheet into excel (am I right?)
If it is yes, go to yahoo: search for a share click on to “Historical Prices” down the bottom of the page, you will see a sign “download to spreadsheet” (you can even personalized the date range)


I set a page (AAPL as an example) click the link

Hope it help… if that wasn’t what you where looking for …. forget this post….

I could give you some Italian links… but are only for the Milan markets (Yahoo is the one I normally use for foreign markets)
