Use the value of 0 to access the data for the most recent data for a particular stock in the Quotes Plus database. The value of Day goes from 0 to approximately -2500 . An index of -2500 refers to the oldest data in the Quotes Plus database.
Example: =qp_close(0, A4) gets the most recent closing price for the stock symbol stored in cell A4 and =qp_date(0, A4) gives you the closing price date. =qp_close(-5, A6) gets the closing price 6 days back in the database for the stock symbol stored in cell A6 and =qp_date(-5, A6) gives you the date that corresponds to 6 days back in the Quotes Plus database.
