Hello dear colleagues,
I'm using yahoo_get with my students and they have had problems getting the
data.
They are using computers with Windows 10 and the Gretl version 2022-02-02.
Some students with the latest Gretl version have had the same problem.
We have used the following code:
include yahoo_get.gfn #package
nulldata 10220
setobs 7 1946-01-01 --time-series
SP500 = yahoo_price("^GSPC", 1) #SP500
After that, they get this message: "data error".
Meanwhile, I get the data without any inconvenient (I'm using Windows 10
Education and the last Gretl version)
Any clues? The server? any security certificate?
It would be helpful to know which version of the package they're running.
Is it the latest version?
