It's messy. I think the Yahoo interface is broken, but I never sat down and wrote something real good to replace it. I have some code I use that goes to OandA.com, but last I checked, that site also had some shortcomings. I think mostly for testing I currently follow these three: beancounter=# select distinct currency from fxprices where date >= '2009-06-01'; currency ---------- AUD CAD EUR (3 rows) If you have some time and a little knowledge of Perl and SQL we could try to fix things up a little.
