US Stock Price Scraper

Download historical OHLCV (open, high, low, close, volume) stock price data for US stocks, ETFs, and indices from Yahoo Finance. Supports any ticker symbol and any interval from 1 minute to 1 month; daily and coarser intervals cover date ranges going back decades, and intraday intervals cover the longest history each interval retains (see Notes below). Includes dividends and stock splits.

Any ticker listed on Yahoo Finance works, including:

Notes

• Intraday history windows — each interval has its own lookback: 1m covers the last 30 days, 2m/5m/15m/30m/90m cover the last 60 days, and 60m/1h cover the last 730 days. A request for more history than an interval retains is automatically narrowed to the available window rather than returning nothing — you always get the most complete answer the interval supports. Daily and coarser intervals (1d, 5d, 1wk, 1mo, 3mo) have no such limit.
• Data is sourced directly from the Yahoo Finance chart API. All prices reflect Yahoo Finance's data as of the time of the run.
• Stock prices before splits are not adjusted in the close field, but adj_close applies all historical splits and dividends.
