You can choose to download historical data for the last week or for all period (January 2003 to present). You should probably download data for all period the first time you use this downloader then perform updates by downloading only the last week data.
In order to download end-of-day (EOD) data for the all the period, you have to type the word 'all' in the text field under the 'period' tab. The 'period' tab appears when you open the downloader.
To download the last week EOD data, just type anything else, example: week.

Trading financial instruments, including foreign exchange on margin, carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in financial instruments or foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
