This is a great service and I’d like to thank the developer regardless of whether there are other services out there that provide similar services.
Why do I say this? I’ve just spent the last year and a couple of solid corona weeks doing some development on a personal project which requires historical access (-1 day mostly) to high / low / open / close data on all LSE companies.
I’ve hunted round for companies that offer this as an api even as a paid service and I’ve found it ridiculously difficult to get data. Most of the product offerings mean I have to login each time, download a file and parse the cvs or pay for access to incrementally tiered historical data.
In the end I’ve had to scrape data which costs a lot in processing time.
My point is here that this will be useful to someone somewhere. And I’m willing to bet they are also willing to pay for it.
