  • What market are you using ? – Mohammad Hammadi Sep 06 '17 at 11:23
  • I encountered the same issue. Waiting for solution as well. – guagay_wk Sep 07 '17 at 01:39
  • Just seeing the same thing for both NASDAQ and ASX. Doesn't seem to work, but URLs in the `~/historical` namespace still work to get historical EOD data. e.g. `https://www.google.com/finance/historical?q=NASDAQ:GOOG&startdate=%271%20Sep,%202017%27` but isn't so useful programmatically... – Phil Ryan Sep 07 '17 at 06:11

I was using it for a long time, it looks like google has stopped it. It was very useful. The best part was you could download live prices for multiple scrips in one request.

  • Thx.. Have you used Zerodha(Kite ) API ? Do you get real time quotes like google finance api ? And is there a limit how many times you can call the API. For me, I need to call API for 100+ stocks every minute... – Amit Sep 07 '17 at 01:31
  • I have not used it, I am currently evaluating both Zerodha & Upstox api. Both of them have limitations on number of requests in a certain time interval. – Pritesh Mhatre Sep 07 '17 at 04:02
  • Thanks Pritesh... if you find Zerodha/Upstox good enough for every minutes quotes please let me know. I am also still exploring ways to get quotes for multiple stocks in one call, every minute... – Amit Sep 08 '17 at 00:06
