Why would I ever download...

Why would I ever download quotes, rather than downloading historical prices? Why would I ever download historical prices for the last month, rather than for the last year (or better yet, the last 2 years, or better yet, the last 5 years)?



Some people like to be on top of things...

Why reconcile an account ever month - instead of every year...

That seemed to work in the old days for me, but unless I download each day now I am missing several day's worth of quotes. Downloading only gets me the current day's quotes... and historical price downloading will often not fill in all of the recent days that are missing quotes (in both Q2004D & Q2005D).

If you use QW Basic, you don't get historical quotes.
