vB Stocks 1.0.0 for vB 3.0.3 · **Released**: 11-06-2004

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.

Perfect for my board.. I did a little manipulation and added the Stock Lookup feature at the top of the page, and the "Stocks To Watch" on my FORUMHOME template.

Nice mod! Always good to see more competition out there and discusion boards for the market.

AN-net · #34 12-02-2004, 10:17 AM

Any screenshots?

AN-net · #36 01-17-2005, 03:01 PM

there is a live demo so need to for screenshots

Strictly speaking, the name for this hack is wrong. If this were truely stock oriented, there is a set of minimal information that is absolutely necessary such as 52-week highs and lows, 20-week moving averages, P/E ratios, etc.

This hack should rightly be called vbDailyMarketReport or something to that effect.

well I do not involve myself in stocks at all, so i would not really know alot about this information except for those terms you defined. found this code snippet thought it would be a great addon for sites dealing with the market and poof i released it. i had no knowledge of a more technical term and since this is the only hack relating to stocks so far i think it fits it right

I like the name and think it's appropriate even if more info might be nice. RE: screenshot, it seems to be practice to put up screenshots, because live sites change (e.g. guests not allowed to see feature, domain change etc..) and screens give a quick and easy look.

AN-net · #40 01-18-2005, 02:20 AM

well currently that is the only info Yahoo offers and i dont know of any other sites that provide CSV OR external source stock information

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
