Hi Andrea
Glad to be of some service :--)
I don't really understand what the GnuCash Namespace is intended for,
but it doesn't seem to make any difference in this case. It is a useful
way of organizing your securities in the Security Editor.
I had a quick look at the Finance::Quote code for the ftfunds (Financial
Times Unit Trusts) module. It works by accessing a specific Financial
Times web page for each security and "screen scraping" the data from the
page. The problem is that the Financial Times web site has changed, and
the expected web page
(http://funds.ft.com/UK/Tearsheet/Summary?s=IE00BMWWJZ56) no longer
returns data.
What to do?
If you are familiar with the perl programming language, you could try
and fix the FTfunds.pm module yourself. It should be using this web page:
https://markets.ft.com/data/funds/tearsheet/summary?s=IE00BMWWJZ56:EUR
Otherwise, you might be able to find some assistance on the
Finance::Quote web site here:
http://finance-quote.sourceforge.net/
Regards
Geoff

Next, in GnuCash, I set up the security to retrieve prices as
"Unknown" / "morningstarch" and was able to retrieve a price
successfully. See attached screenshot. I am running GnuCash 4.4 on
Windows 10.
Hi, Geoff.
First of all, thanks for the answer!
Next, I saw that I have the fund set up under the FUND namespace whereas
you used EUREX: is there anything to it or just a matter of personal
preference?
The key was to use the "unknown" radiobutton instead of the single
source, I'm not entirely clear what the difference is but that enabled
"morningstarch", so I'm happy.
Anyone else with ideas how to fix the two funds from ftfunds?
IE00BMWWJZ56:EUR and LU0331286574:EUR
Thanks,
Andrea.
