Price Data Source

The setup of your Price Data Source is one of the key configurations for Share Trade Tracker. It is the first step as part of the Welcome guide. After selecting to 'Set Price Data Source' you will see the following form that will configure the data source for End of Day and Historical Prices.

End of Day & Historical Prices

The options for prices are:

• EOD Historical - reliable data source, PAID option. This data source provides an alternative to World Trading Data via an integrated API. It requires the setup of an API Key before the data source can be used. At the time of writing this article plans from $20/month were available. Click here EOD Historical for setup details.

  • Norgate Data - this option is a paid data service that provides direct and local access to the prices and security information available in your Norgate service. There is no API required, once you select this option Share Trade Tracker will detect if you have a valid Norgate Data subscription and then use that to update your prices. Click here Norgate Data for setup details.

  • Yahoo (default) - this option is now the default FREE option for prices and security information. It is sourced from the Yahoo Finance site using the historical prices.
