The purpose of this blog is to make life easier with a list of the main sites where to download the historical data.
Dukascopy group
Dukascopy group is a bank that also offers the possibility to trade in the financial market. As it is shown in the figure below there is a section to download historical data.
There are several instruments: forex, commodities, CFD, ETF and crypto.
For each dataset it is possible to choose the tick (second, minute, hour, day, week and month), the date range, the volume units, and filter flats.
The possibility to filter all flats in the price is a very nice thing.
Stooq
Also in this case there are several stocks that can be downloaded. However the date range is more limited, you can chose only daily, hourly or 5 minutes data.
Yahoo finance
My last chosen is yahoo finance, although it is probably the most famous site for financial data. Here the sampling rate is: daily, weekly and monthly.
In the next article I will write how to get data using python code. Stay tuned.
