Python Web Scraping On Large Html Webpages

I am trying to get all the historical information of a particular stock from yahoo finance. I am new to python and web-scraping. I want to download all the historical data into a C

Solution 1:

Initially only 100 results are downloaded to the browser. And when you scroll through it to bottom of the page then JS Event occurs which trigger AJAX function to download next 50/100 data entry on the background and then it displayed to the browser. On your python code there is no possible way to create the JS Event and the AJAX call request as python does not execute javascript. So it's better to use https://intrinio.com/ or https://www.alphavantage.co

You may try yahoo-finance python package. https://pypi.org/project/yahoo-finance/
