3 years ago Hi @Jihad! Thank you for spotting this issue 👍🏻 It's due to the fact that the static data may not be up-to-date, and updating it is really tricky, so in the meantime, I encourage you to use the investpy.search_quotes() functionality which retrieves the most updated data as it's using Investing.com search engine.

Hello there,
I'm using both:
inpy.get_stock_recent_data("2222", 'Saudi Arabia')and
inpy.get_stock_historical_data(stock, country, "from_date", "to_date", as_json=False, order='ascending')For Middle east market, especially country="Saudi Arabia"
I noticed there are multiple stocks getting this error:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/jihad/Dev/miniconda3/envs/stocksData/lib/python3.8/site-packages/IPython/core/interactiveshell.py", line 3437, in run_code exec(code_obj, self.user_global_ns, self.user_ns) File "<ipython-input-16-ba0abfc68973>", line 1, in <module> inpy.get_stock_recent_data(str(2222), 'Saudi Arabia') File "/Users/jihad/Dev/miniconda3/envs/stocksData/lib/python3.8/site-packages/investpy/stocks.py", line 265, in get_stock_recent_data raise RuntimeError("ERR#0018: stock " + stock + " not found, check if it is correct.") **RuntimeError: ERR#0018: stock 2222 not found, check if it is correct.**To debug this, I used:
inpy.get_stocks(country='Saudi Arabia')and the full list count was equivalent to Saudi Arabia investing.com page
But, some companies have wrong symbols or empty ones, two examples: Baazeem Trading Co investing.com page --> but in the list it has 9503 symbol, not sure why? Also ARAMCO investing.com page --> but in the list its ARAM symbol, not sure why? with empty full name & isin fields.
Is it a bug? or i'm doing something wrong? most others works fine.
