[GNC] Alpha Vantage problems

[Chris Good]

Hi Adrian, how are you getting quotes from excel? Have you got your
alphavantage API key specified in GnuCash preferences?

I suggest the next stage would be to test each of the stocks you want to
use Alphavantage for, with gnc-fq-dump.

Regards, Chris Good
