Community.Providers is a new, open source library of data providers developed by the Wealth-Lab user community.

The initial release contains a static provider for historical Google Finance data. You can use its source code available for download as an example for building your own data providers.

Excellent! Thanks a lot for this one, Eugene. I was in the process of reverse engineering the MQS provider, but this simpler and just saved me a lot of time.

These initiatives are very much appreciated.

FreeStockChart (http://www.freestockcharts.com/platform/v1 )as intraday/EOD data provider

This provider (in free version ) allows downloading 500 data points in all time frames (1 minute to years) for whole universe of symbols ( 500 data point limit is maintained in paid version for intraday but not for EOD (which is unlimited, though their is a way to obtain the EOD history beyond 500 data points for free). Their T-series indicators allows monitoring AD line, U/D Volume and many other "Internals" type reads on intraday basis.

Downloader is 2nd button on the right of Settings ( as seenn on opened chart page).

I wonder if it is possible to incorporate this provider in WL.

Thank you for your suggestion. Unfortunately, 500 data points is not something to consider. Especially when it requires an extra step of decompiling the SilverLight application behind their price feed. Any given provider from our showcase has more. As limited as it is, even Google Finance intraday data offers 5K+ data points for 1-min and ~4K+ for 5-min. The sentiment indicators can be created through the multitude of built-in and additional IndexDefinitions using Fidelity intraday data.

QUOTE:
Unfortunately, 500 data points is not something to consider.

Disregarding this provider purely on this ground is bit naive, IMHO.

First, the vendor have a large customer base who make use of these 500 points in making day to day decisions.
Second, 500 data point limit (at least for EOD data) can be overcome rather easily.
Third, if you start collecting intraday data, within few months you will have tones of data in your hand.

Having spent tens of (if not hundreds) of hours in trying to produce sentiment indicators using intraday data and WL, I can eliminate this option in a second. Try creating A/D and U/D volume line (using Index lab) for 500 stocks in SP500 on 5 min bars, you will know what I mean.

Sorry, not good points to justify the investment of developer's time and effort into a crippled data kludge.

But if 500 bars of downloadable data aren't stopping you, here's a workaround to your I-L index update speed concern. Impose a similar limitation on the accumulated Fidelity intraday data by backing up your FidelityStaticProvider folder first, then truncating all bars in your S&P 500 DataSet before a selected date using the Data Tool. Try creating your index in I-L, and then restore the static data from backup. If you have further questions, feel free to raise a forum thread (as this one's dedicated to making MS123 data provider announcements).

Good afternoon!

I am trying to download your extension "Morningstar data provider", but for some reason do not have permission to download.
Could you throw in the email

Thank you so much!

* BBFree provider has been taken down due to demise of the free data feed that once powered it
* Quandl provider: added support for CBOE/VVIX

NOTE! Important update to Yahoo provider:

As Yahoo! has recently started adjusting stock volume for splits, there would be discrepancies between your cached historical volume data when a new split is processed. Therefore an important update is made to the Yahoo! provider 2016.09 which we recommend its every user to apply. If split adjustment is not activated in provider's settings, Wealth-Lab will reverse adjust the cached volume. It is recommended that Y! data users refresh their cached histories which is easy to do using the Data Tool's "Remove all data" feature and then updating the data the usual way.

MS123 Data Providers, September 2016

* 99WallStreet provider restored. Since January 2015, 99WallStreet's website had a major flaw: its earnings timestamps lacked the year.

MS123 Data Providers, January - March 2017

* Finam provider: fixed "0 bars added" on data update (due to improved bot detection).

Note! Finam data updates has to become slower due to an extra delay to avoid the new protection

MS123 Data Providers, May 2018

As usual, we improve the Wealth-Lab data provider experience with the following fixes and improvements:

MS123 Data Providers, December 2018

Mandatory upgrade to Yahoo! static provider users. The latest version fixes an issue with false "gaps" after stock splits. The incorrect handling of splits was caused by Y! making change to the split data format on their website.

For CBOE provider, we reflected the symbol change at CBOE (VXMT renamed to VIX6M) and fixed potential issue with data requests.

In Quandl provider we've added support for US Treasury yield curve data per customer request.

MS123 Data Providers, January 2019

In MS123 Fundamental/News providers library:

* Multpl provider users note: Item "[mu] interest-rate" is replaced with "[mu] 10-year-treasury-rate"

* Accuracy improvements for FRED provider users. Breaking change: for all series Monthly and up, all timestamps are now marked as end-of-period to avoid peeking into the future. For example, in Quarterly scale 1 Jan in the original data becomes 31 Mar on a Wealth-Lab chart. As this will shift the timestamps forward, this will most likely change your backtest results for systems using FRED series.

Also in FRED provider, fixed a "No Data Available" error for on-demand update (by virtue of improved detection of scale in the original data).
