vB Stocks 1.0.0

by Antonbomb22(Anthony Scudese)

Compatiability:
Compatiable with 3.0.x(Tested on 3.0.3)

Description:
This hack uses Yahoo Finance's external CSV feature. It converts the CSV to a readable array. This allows you to get stock quotes(not realtime but updated daily) for whatever stocks Yahoo Finance provides via stock symbols(Google = GOOG). You can also get quotes on the DowJones. Also this hack allows your users to look up stocks that you may not have already being pulled from Yahoo Finance.

I did a simple template mod to show the link STOCK MARKET in my navbar.

PHP Code:


			
In NAVBAR find:



<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="calendar.php?$session[sessionurl]">$vbphrase[calendar]</a></td>



AND PLACE BELOW IT:



<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="stocks.php?$session[sessionurl]">Stock Market</a></td>

But there is still a problem with editing a previously listed stock as mentioned earlier. I also would like to see the stocks automatically listed in alphabetical order... I'll try that next.

.

I'm a PHP newbie - so I am s-l-o-w at things... :ermm:

Can you please post the mods that you did? I also liked the way you were able to get the current price to show a gain or loss by changing the color.

Would love to see this hack modified for the Aussie Stock Market with data from Yahoo Australia.

In fact, I will pay money to someone who can modify it for me.

I NEED THIS!

@Joe, I may be able to do this and for free. I just need permission from AN-NET to be able to release it.

@simtech, I just updated my addon for this hack so the font color changes along with the change (negative change = red, postive change = green) you can just copy the template from adv_portal_stockbits and replace it with quote_bits and it should work.

Sweet - that took about 3 seconds to change and did exactly what I wanted!

Thanks!

Well hell man, let me know if you do.

I've bookmarked this thread and will check it every few days or so.

I would really appreciate it if you could!

I run a stock market forum here in Australia and would give anything to be able to incorporate this hack into my site.

i'm in australia also.
i've *LOVE* to see this go full on, showing graphs, highs & lows, current prices, etc.
Then the members could create portfolios, and use fake money to buy and sell (like all those eCash and other mods running around - instead we'd give our users 50,000 per 4 months, to see who could create the highest profit at the end. )

this has HUGE potential - much more fun than the arcade 8)

An-net you should really go hard on this - it's a GREAT idea

Joe Blow · #69 03-26-2005, 08:55 AM

Seriously I will contribute money to have this done for the Australian stock market.

I have code for a stock quote feature that sources stock data from Yahoo Australia. Unfortunately, I'm not a programmer and can't do much with it.

Provide the link for the AU yahoo code and maybe some one can help.
