I believe I'm not the only one experiencing occasional issues getting quotes from AlphaVantage. While poking around I found a similar source, World Trading Data at https://www.worldtradingdata.com/. They use an API Key similar to AlphaVantage, along with a REST based API. While researching their API I did come across two issues so far. The first is that their free service allows just 250 requests per day. Still, adequate for many investors. The second issue is that they do not have data for mutual funds, at least not using the expected ticker symbols.
My Perl skills are rusty, having evolved into more of a systems engineer/architect since my programming days. But on my Mac I did create a Finance::Quote::WorldTrading module and used it to successfully update the NYSE and NASDAQ stocks in my GnuCash accounts. Should I perhaps post the module to the finance-quote-de...@lists.sourceforge.net list for possible inclusion in future releases of Finance::Quote? - Bruce S.
