RTQuotesXL
downloads real-time stock, index, futures, options and
mutual fund quotes directly into Microsoft Excel
spreadsheets. Free 15-minute delayed and fee-based
real-time quotes for stocks, options, indexes, and
mutual funds are retrieved from Yahoo! Finance. Data is
available from more than 50 worldwide markets, including
the US, Canada, UK, Germany, France, Italy, Australia,
and India.
RTQuotesXL automatically draws and updates charts
in real-time. The color of the chart title and individual
chart elements changes based on the latest price
movement. This helps the investor better monitor
the current market situation in real-time.
For your convenience, RTQuotesXL downloads data
to two spreadsheets: "Quotes" and "Quotes (Vertical)."
The "Quotes" spreadsheet is for real-time quote
tracking, while "Quotes (Vertical)" is intended
for real-time charting and real-time technical analysis.
The "Quotes (Vertical)" spreadsheet can be updated
in two ways: rolling and appending. Rolling will
add new quotes to the bottom and remove old quotes
from the top for each update, while Appending will
only add new quotes to the bottom, leaving old quotes
intact.
Quotes can be provided to third party applications
via
Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) links. RTQuotesXL
can create DDE links to the latest price quotes
located on the "Quotes" spreadsheet, or you can
set up your own
DDE links to any cell on any workbook.
