Stock Symbol Change History Nasdaq

Symbols of stocks change due to various reason at the exchange.

A quick google check took me to this url :

The problem was it was 19 pages . There was no easy way to download them all.

So wrote a small snippet of code that goes through each page and downloads it.

The following code gives you a way to download the stock symbols change.

Interactive Brokers Product List Web Scraper

I use Interactive Brokers to trade for my personal account. Several times I needed to check the Product list page to get the symbols and other information . I wrote a small program to download it automatically into matlab. Hopefully the readers will find it useful.
