I want to be able to create a web page that allows a user to select fields, then create a quote from yahoo! finance using the fields the user selected. What are the field/keyword values that are available.

How do I set up forex currency pairs to watch in my Yahoo Finance page?

Friday, January 23rd, 2009

Joelmont75 asked:

I just started trading Forex pairs and I need to be able to collect price data for the last 10 time periods (hours, days or weeks) so that I can input this information into my trading platform to give me an idea on where the price of the currency pair will move next.

Can anyone tell me how to get this info into my yahoo finance page so that it updates with the movement of the currency pairs?

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!!

Patrick

I was scammed and they used a yahoo finance transaction to do it. What can I do?

Friday, January 23rd, 2009

jimbo58 asked:

At the bottom of the transaction page it even had job openings for yahoo and their copyright 2006 Yahoo! Inc. All Rights Reserved. The Yahoo trade mark looked just like the one on the web page for yahoo finance. The only reason I even did it was because I have used yahoo for a long time and did not think that they could use yahoo like that to do it. So what are my options now?

I am looking to buy a car. The owner says it has to go through Yahoo Finance. What is that, how does it work?

Friday, January 2nd, 2009

AlF asked:

I am skeptical of completing a transaction through yahoo finance without seeing the vehicle first. It seems kind of like an ebay transaction, sight unseen. How is this setup and how is the buyer protected?
