I got the following traceback/error:

raise RemoteDataError('Unable to read URL: {0}'.format(url))
pandas_datareader._utils.RemoteDataError: Unable to read URL:
http://finance.google.com/finance/historical?q=ETR%3AADS&startdate=Jan+01%2C+2000&enddate=Mar+16%2C+2018&output=csv

Does others have the same problem? (Thanks.)

Are they joking?

Hey guys! Anyone has an alternative to Yahoo or Google finance? Is it possible to use an offline DataReader for Pandas like an Excell spreadsheet of data downloaded from MetaTrader for example? I Would like to try to use ... Anyone here had tried something like this? Other options shoud be for example Quantum as DataReader? Is it possible?

Please have a look here:
#454
rsvp/fecon235#7
and so on...

I think that rsvp has done a great job about other data ressources. For me - I need datasets belonging to DAX, MDAX, SDAX, TecDAX - Google finance and Yahoo finance are very important.

Please look in the docs, I think pandas can read Excel files directly to a pandas dataframe:
https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/index.html

Yeh - they have removed historical data from google finance. To see this, try visit the following in your browser:
http://finance.google.com/finance/historical?q=GOOG

Does anyone know any other source for this data?

You mean free source, right? I know of paid-for sources, but I'm guessing that's not what any of us want here :)

Well I haven't looked into it, so this may be off, but I know of:
https://www.home.saxo/
https://www.ig.com/za

But I think there have been others like Bloomberg mentioned in other issues - maybe @paintdog has something to say about this?

Unfortunately, I have no experience. Google Finance and Yahoo Finance have done a very good job for me, at the moment I'm a bit baffled. I will go through the suggestions myself.

Please have a look there:

rsvp/fecon235#7

It seems, @rsvp has done a very good job about listening some other possibilites. I will test Yahoo Finance! in the next days.

If you continue needing the data, this URL still works:

Have a look at quandl and stooq. You should get (?) both sources via pandas.datareader. I've not tested it yet myself.
