MMM-AVStock v2.0.0 (npm update required!)

[lavolp3]

Based on @Sean 's MMM-AVStock, which I have taken over from him, I present you now version 2.0.0

As the previous version it comes with a ticker and table mode, now it is possible to add a chart, or use chart mode to only show it.

Additional features:

• TOUCH MODE. Touch on a ticker / row to show the chart
• VOLUMES: Daily Trading volumes.
• TECHNICALS: Include EMA’s or SMA’s. As many as you want.
• ZOOMABLE CHART. Yes. Zoomable.

Now go and BTFD!

There’s one downside at the moment:
The data sourced from Alphavantage gets only updated once at the and of a trading day. So you always have the last session’s values.
I’m working on a new source.

Install

Find the module here and have fun:

cool… what charting tool are you using?

[lavolp3]

@sdetweil Highcharts. Quite cool! They have a stockchart mode.
I learned today ther’s even an ‘organization chart’ mode.

Hi,
I want to follow a stock from Korean stock market. For example, Samsung.
I found its symbol to be something like 000053.SK but it seems that the stock price isn’t being updated.
Can you know what’s the problem?
Thanks,
Etay

@etayl Try the stock search function
https://www.alphavantage.co/query?function=SYMBOL_SEARCH&keywords=Samsu&apikey=kxxxxxxxxxx
Funnily it apparently works with any given API key.
Here I can only find Samsung Frankfurt and London quotes.

Small update on new API.

I am working on including IEX Cloud API. Have been successful for quotes.
However the API has a limit for their free tier (as they all have) and requesting historic prices comsumes a LOT of usage quota.
For the charts to show we need this historical data however.
I am considering using both sources for the different purposes (i.e. IEX for quotes and AV for historic data).
So users would need 2 API keys for the complete module or one if they don’t want to see the chart.
If anyone has a better idea and knowledge about the API, let me know!

Have a great weekend everyone!
