Stock ticker symbol change #175

Hi,

my company would like to know how are you handling stock ticker symbol changes and do you provide a list of historical stock ticker symbol changes? So what happens if a ticker is no longer available and the company changed the ticker symbol, specifically can I get historical data under the new ticker symbol or with the old one? Do you apply isin symbol lookup for that?

In general, we keep the exact symbol as it was traded on the exchange on that day.
