I am trying for weeks now to find out how `HTTP` and the YahooFinance API work together. Would love if someone can give me a hint.  
Thanks!

`tq_get` from `tidyquant` is just a wrapper around `getSymbols` from `quantmod`… ;D

I basically fail to include the proper cookies or to extract and include the crumb thing.

You do not need the crumb. Now there is [YahooFinance.jl](https://github.com/markushhh/YahooFinance.jl) for downloading the yahoo finance data.
