I'm trying to retrieve stock data in real-time using Python. As of now I am using the yahoo-finance module which I believe is 15 minutes behind. Also, I can't retrieve the company name with this module. I need to be able to retrieve current price, opening price, and company name, using just the ticker code.

Thanks for any help.

  • I answered your question but in the future do some work yourself. This was all stuff you could have easily searched for yourself. – Daniel Centore Dec 14 '15 at 02:08
  • @DanielCentore thank you for your response. Everything I have found on myself except how to find the company t name... Which you have provided... I was simply providing more information on what I was doing. – Kevin Carpenter Dec 14 '15 at 02:11
  • That was very unclear. Make sure your questions are well formed and don't lead to confusion. This is a volunteer site. – Daniel Centore Dec 14 '15 at 02:12
  • That's for the input... I'm falling a sleep over here, sorry. – Kevin Carpenter Dec 14 '15 at 02:14

Company name given the ticker symbol: https://stackoverflow.com/a/885557/998251

Opening/Closing Price are given when you use yahoo.get_historical. Manual

You're not going to get much less than 15 minute lag for free. To get truly realtime you need to pay some serious cash.
