[GNC] Online quotes for a mutual fund

[Ruaraidh Sackville Hamilton]

Finding the right source and symbol seems a challenge! For several years
I've been successfully getting quotes through fq using the single source
"Alphavantage, US" for single UK equities, and the multiple-source "U.K.
funds" for UK funds. However, I can't find anything that works for UK
Treasury gilts (e.g. ISIN GB00BJMHB534, symbol TR29), even though they
appear on the LSE and FT websites. I've tried all sources listed in the GC
help system that seem reasonably possible. Some examples:

C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>perl gnc-fq-dump alphavantage TR29.L
C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>perl gnc-fq-dump ftfunds GB00BJMHB534
C:\Program Files (x86)\gnucash\bin>perl gnc-fq-dump mstaruk GB00BJMHB534

all generate the error code
** This stock quote cannot be used by GnuCash!

Does anyone have any experience with this?

Regards,

Ruaraidh
