need help getting stock symbols and stock exchange codes

Post by jeltedeproft »

Is there somewhere a list of stock symbols and stock exchange codes that the application accepts?

I have tried many different ways of adding the DoubleVerify Holdings stock to the application.
If I just add

DV.NYSE

it doesn't work.

When I try one of the suggested examples, like IBM.BE it does work.
But so far I haven't been able to add any of my own.
Am I doing something wrong?

Where can I find stock symbols and stock exchange codes?

Kind regards,
Jelte

I find that links to Yahoo don't work. It is partly down to declining to accept Yahoo privacy intrusions, and also to Yahoo then defaulting to your own location. I just look up the share on the browser, which usually gives you the share ticker and exchange.

Incidentally, same goes for currencies. I load my exchange rates manually from xe.com as trying to load from Yahoo always seems to fail.

If I remember correctly, there were problems with YAHOO depending on where you lived (country).
You can find various discussions about this here:
