Get All Stock Symbols Stock-Market-Wise

C#

Hi everyone,
Greetings for the day!

I don't have much experience of Yahoo Finance API. I'm required to get all the stock symbols stock-market-wise from yahoo using this API. Can somebody please help me to achieve this purpose?

I think this could be achieved by downloading the ticker data from Yahoo.

I've tried getting into the sample codes at http://code.google.com/p/yahoo-finance-managed/[^] but no luck.

I appreciate any little help.


I've tried this so far:

TextWriter tw = File.CreateText("StockData.csv");
            AlphabeticIDIndexDownload dl1 = new AlphabeticIDIndexDownload();
            dl1.Settings.TopIndex = null;                      
            Response<AlphabeticIDIndexResult> resp1 = dl1.Download();

            tw.WriteLine("Id|Isin|Name|Exchange|Type|Industry");
            Console.WriteLine("Id|Isin|Name|Exchange|Type|Industry");
            foreach (var alphabeticalIndex in resp1.Result.Items)
            {
                AlphabeticalTopIndex topIndex = (AlphabeticalTopIndex)alphabeticalIndex;
                dl1.Settings.TopIndex = topIndex;
                Response<AlphabeticIDIndexResult> resp2 = dl1.Download();
                foreach (var index in resp2.Result.Items)
                {
                    IDSearchDownload dl2 = new IDSearchDownload();
                    Response<IDSearchResult> resp3 = dl2.Download(index);                   
                    foreach (var item in resp3.Result.Items)
                    {
                        tw.WriteLine(item.ID + "|" + item.ISIN + "|" + item.Name + "|" + item.Exchange + "|" + item.Type + "|" + item.Industry);
                        Console.WriteLine(item.ID + "|" + item.ISIN + "|" + item.Name + "|" + item.Exchange + "|" + item.Type + "|" + item.Industry + "Exchange: " + item.Exchange);
                    }
                }
            }

Best Regards,
