    Give us an example. Is it providing different historical share prices or something? Are you looking at the same company listed on different exchanges?

    I had a quick look at FTSE on both yahoo and Google, in different timesframes and apart from a slightly different chart layout they are the same.

    What differences are you noticing?
    Is it possible for you to post the charts?

    Google is showing daily prices - the Price over a number of days and yahoo is showing movement on one particular day only.
    That's based on the 2 links you posted above.

    sorry i tried to post 5 year graph

    If you look over a 3 month period they are exactly the same. The difference with anything shorter is that Google has more information on share price throughout the day were Yahoo only has the closing share price of each day. Googles graph is just more detailed and has a lot more points on it but both close at the same price.
