AlphaVantage Quote Source

As of the beginning of November, 2017, the Yahoo Finance APIs used below stopped working. See the blog. Because of this, PalOMoney was updated to version 1.0.8, and MoneyPal was also updated to support the free AlphaVantage service. AlphaVantage.CSV has become the new default quote source.

The free Alpha Vantage service requires a free API key that you can immediately obtain from their web site. Anyone can instantly get this API key that works for all sorts of useful security and currency price time series. The quotes are supposedly real-time (not delayed), which is a plus.

Copy and paste 'AlphaVantage.CSV=AlphaVantage.CSV Section' into your PalOMoney.ini file at the [Quote Sources] section:

[Quote Sources] AlphaVantage.CSV=AlphaVantage.CSV Section Finance.Yahoo.CSV=Finance.Yahoo.CSV Section

Then copy the entire section below, and substitute the API key you obtained from AlphaVantage.

[AlphaVantage.CSV Section] Name=AlphaVantage.CSV AddOn=(internal) Output Format=0 Header Schema=1 Schema= URL Template= Real Time=1 Historical=1 Multiple Hist=0 Login ID=PutYourAPIKeyHere Password=
