Hemen Kapadia(totalbankrupt)
Firstt of all a very BIG THANKS to you as u r doing a very wonderful work for all traders.

just a small que:
can i just download data for any particular index of bse or nse.
say if i have to just download sensex, or nifty midcap can i do it??

2nd thing cant we download futures data thru getbhavcopy??
Hi rohan,

No there is no way to tell Getbhavcopy to download data only for a particular index or script.

Think of it this way. Today you do not want to trade in an XYZ stock but after 6 months may be you want to. So what is the point of starting to download data from that day onwards. So it is better to have data for all scripts and indices so you can refer to it anytime you want.

Moreover it is not much of a performance hog too. Takes about 30 seconds to download NSE and BSE data for one day.

As of now futures functionality is not supported in Getbhavcopy.

Hi,

My site is currently down (should be back up in 2 hours). I recommend that you read the documentation section (Getbhavcopy options) as it will help you resolve the issue. For now just enable the output header option for BSE and then download data. Once you read the docs and forums on my site you will understand the issue.

Hi Hemen. I am a very old user of the software you have created. I have been away from trading for sometime and hence used to only convert data and stop at that for the last many months.

however, this morning I noticed that since I downloaded the new version (2.0.1) the data hasnt converted properly into metastock data. I have no clue why this has happened. Hopefully you might have some answers. Thanks for your help in advance.

The screen shots attached might give you some idea on what is goin on.

Thanks,
~Rashmi

Hi Rashmi Gupta,

I did not understand the issue at hand from the screen shots. Can you please explain in detail. Moreover the latest version is 2.0.4. Please wait for some time (about 2 to 3 hors) for my site www.getbhavcopy.com to come up and you can download the latest version from there.

Once so please download the data using the latest version.

As for the current issue, please explain in detail.

Thanks for your prompt reply ono this.

I was using an earlier version of bhavcopy software (till 7 Jan) after which I moved on to the new version (2.0.1). This new version, among other things, also names the file in a new way (as shown in the screenshot of the folder).

Hence, I changed the file name in the downloader settings and continued to convert files to matastock format as earlier. However, I never checked if everythings was working properly. This morning when I checked I noticed that data is present only upto 7Jan. After that no data is present in metastock. I also compared the text files created (before and after working on the new version). They looked similar to me in all respect.

Would you know what could be the issue? Please let me know if something is not clear still. Thanks.

And yes, I moved on to the 2.0.4 version recently. Thanks for the updated version. :)

and I also tried renaming the 9th Jan file to the earlier file name. Obviously, it didnt work. So file name is not the issue.
