Confluence - Stock Quote Display

Bill Davis November 28, 2011

Is there a way in Confluence to display a specific Stock Symbol feed? We want to add our company stock price to our landing page, so when a user logs into confluence they see the current stock price in the same way that you would if you were wanting a quote from a financial site.

Any Plug-ins or macro's that do this?

Tried to add tags, but could not - quote ticker ticker_symbol stock stock_symbol

As nothing exists like this yet, your best bet is to create you own macro which you can do at Administration > Configuration > User Macros and using the following (rendered) html example:

<!-- Start FreeStockCharts.com WatchList Widget --><p width="100%" align="center"><iframe width="160" height="137" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none;" src="http://widgets.freestockcharts.com/WidgetServer/WatchListWidget.aspx?sym=EUR/USD,USD/JPY,GBP/USD,USD/CAD,AUD/USD&style=WLBlueStyle&w=160"></iframe></p> <!-- End FreeStockCharts.com WatchList Widget -->

This one holds a few stocks, but you can compile your stock widget at http://widgets.freestockcharts.com/. You can also use a different site, as long as it provides html code that you can embed on your website.

Add your new stock macro to the desired page and you're done :)

Edit: Yahoo Stock Ticker also looks good.

Thank you for the idea on the macro, I could not figure out how to get the macro to appear to insert on the page, so instead of creating a macro myself I just used the HTML macro to paste the widget above into the confluence page.
