Update Splits and Dividends not working

[kdoren]

While connected to Yahoo, "Update Splits and Dividends" doesn't work anymore, for any of the stocks I have tried. This used to work, perhaps Yahoo changed something that broke it.

Also, it's a real pain to "Adjust Splits and Dividends" one stock at a time. Please put it on your wish list to be able to update splits and dividends for an instrument list.

Thanks

kdoren,

Thanks. We will look into it. Thanks for the suggestion as well. I have added it to our list.

kdoren,

The button should be fixed again for the next beta version. Thank you for the report.

Hi Josh,

Still not fixed in beta21, I'm afraid to say... clicking the button returns the "hourglass" and NT won't respond anymore.

ninjna,

Looks to be maybe a server timeout on the request from Yahoo. We will take a look.

Hi Josh,

Just tried that - Yahoo connection is not working for splits & dividend updates, whereas Google connection is. Quotes are coming down fine from Yahoo, though.

Hope this helps,

ninjna,

Basically what happened is that Yahoo changed their page layout which broke the request. We have addressed this for the next release. Thank you for the report.

Update Splits and Dividends causes B21 to hang when connected to Yahoo.

I think Google might work though (at least it doesn't hang).

[NinjaTrader_JoshP]

Yes, this is the case since Yahoo changed their page so the request is broken. Already addressed for the next release.

Yahoo! changed page layout which broke NinjaTrader's logic to pull splits and dividends.
