Stock Ticker

You can use standard symbols from stock exchanges supported by AlphaVantage.co. For example, you can try with AAPL, MSFT, IBM, CSCO, GOOG, YHOO, AMZN (Apple Inc; Microsoft Corporation; International Business Machines Corporation; Cisco Systems, Inc.; Google Inc; Yahoo! Inc; Amazon.com, Inc.) To check if AlphaVantage.co support your preferred symbol(s), you can use Symbol Search & Test tool on plugin settings page to search for keysords and symbols on AlphaVantage.co directly from your WordPress dashboard.

Try to find correct symbol on AlphaVantage.co by looing for it in Symbol Search & Test tool. Even try alternatives or company name. If that does not help, search Alpha Vantage community forum www.alpha-vantage.community or contact Alpha Vantage support.

Unfortunately, AlphaVantage.co no longer supports indexes (mid-2020). That is why Stock Ticker no longer provide quotes for them.

Unfortunately, AlphaVantage.co does not support commodities (metals, energies, grains, meats, softs). That is why Stock Ticker can't provide quotes for them.

Use Currency exchange symbols like EURGBP to get rate of 1 Euro = ? British Pounds Please note, since mid-2020 AlphaVantage.co does not support anymore format EURGBP=X so use syntax without =X.

Enter symbol in format EXCHANGE:SYMBOL like LON:LLOY or SYMBOL.EXCHANGE like LLOY.LON for Lloyds Banking Group Plc from London Stock Exchange market. Please note that AlphaVantage.co does not provide stock data always for all existing stocks.

Add to Custom Names legend currency exchange symbol w/o =X part, like: EURGBP;Euro (€) ⇨ British Pound Sterling (£)

Add this to your template file (you also can add custom parameters for shortcode): <?php echo do_shortcode('[stock_ticker]'); ?>

On Settings page for plugin you can set custom Value template. You can use macro keywords %exch_symbol%, %symbol%, %company%, %price%, %volume%, %change%, %changep% and %ltrade% mixed with HTML tags <span>, <em> and/or <strong>. Default template is %company% %price% %change% %changep% but you can format it like: <span style="color:#333">%company%</span> <em>%price%</em> <strong>%change%</strong> %changep%

Please note that Alpha Vantage does not provide company name in retrieved feeds. You'll need to set company name in Custom Names field on plugin settings page.

This can be temporary issue. First try to run Fetch Stock Data Now! on plugin settings page. If that does not help, next try to increase Fetch Timeout option on general plugin settings and then run Fetch Stock Data Now!. If you still experiencing issue, please contact us through support forum.

Since version 3.1 of Stock Ticker you can get stock data in custom functions.
