This item downloads historical end-of-day quotes for companies listed in the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEX). The HKEX is a stock exchange based in Hong Kong, China. It is owned by the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Ltd after the merger of the Hong Kong Futures Exchange and the Hong Kong Securities Clearing Company.
The data is downloaded for a period that spans from 2002 (for some companies) to present and symbols are automatically added into your symbols database. However, you can download a list of symbols that I have created specially for this item. The list contains the symbol names as well as the companies' title. This list of ticker symbols can be found at the following URL: Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
Historical quotes are downloaded for the 1354 Hong Kong companies and for the HKEX main index: Hang Seng (symbol: HSI). The EOD data is adjusted, which means that the close price has been adjusted for dividends and splits.
Note that the data is downloaded monthly and the new data update is available only at the beginning of the new month.
Example: November data will be available only at the beginning of December.

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.
