StockQuotePrice source?

[sekoontz]

Anyone using the StockQuotePrice function? Works great, and hasn't had a hiccup for many months (year?) but recently started returning the same price. June 2, 3, and now 6 show the same results -- basing this on a mostly automated system that pulls values in each day.

User has been using my script (which uses this function) successfully for quite some time, so I do not think it is user error.

Anybody know the source of the values? Maybe the source is the problem and not the function itself.

Thanks.

Thanks very much. Nobody at TechNet seems to know this.

You can see this in the script itself! You can see in the source for the module that it looks at finance.yahoo.com for this information.

How do I view the source? Do I use a text editor to view the 360Works_ScriptMaster.fmplugin file?

It's in the right column of the module details when you click on the StockQuotePrice module in the scriptmaster.fp7 file.

Here's the code if you don't want to pull the file open:

String url = "http://download.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=" + 

   symbol + 

   "&f=l1";

return new URL(url).getText().trim();
