Aaron J | Can anyone tell me where I can get live share prices on the internet? |
A number of sites offer charts and prices but these usually have a 15 min delay. Also there is no easy way to get the prices programmatically. What I would really like is an RSS link or something similar that I can access every so often to get up to date prices. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you. |

The delay is 20mins. Assuming ur in Oz, it's almost impossible to get live quotes on the web for free, as they all come from the stock exchange (ASX) and they charge for the live info. Sometimes a site pops up giving them away free for awhile, but get it while it lasts coz they will be paying the ASX and it ain't cheap. I've had a couple in the past but they stopped.
The Easiest way to get live quotes is to join up to one of the online brokers, it's usually free (the cheaper ones anyway) and they will let you get livequotes, one at a time. Sometimes you'nn need to maintain a minimum balance in your online trust account, sometimes not (mine doesn't)
Whether they'll let you plug in with RSS or some other streaming type access is another story. My broker (Netwealth) doesn't do that.
Some online brokers have advanced live services (usually around $70mth) where you can get streaming live quotes as well as live streaming market depth and last 10 sales, either thru your browser or with an application they give you.
The ASX has a free (delayed) quote server you can plug into with software that supports that, you can update you database thru the day or at the end, I use Fund Manager to do this sometimes. |

You can get real-time streaming prices for shares in a portfolio.
There is a limit of 1 hour per day and after that your feed may be terminated without notice. |

If you go to www.selftrade.co.uk you can register and then create your own watchlist of share prices you wish to know. This will also give you chart information and the days trading information together with news and comments on the share/company. You can add or delete shares to you watchlist at any given time and you can get an uptodate quote on a share also. |

Open an account with an on line brokerage firm. They all provide current share prices. |

The 15 minute delay is actually at least a 20 minute delay. The reason for this is because when delayed quotations were first broadcast over computer lines, the ticker tape was still being used. The ticker tape was old technology & was very slow. The ticker tape had a 15 minute delay before prices were sent over it -- but because of the backlog, it would take five extra minutes to send prices out during the busy time of the day. In order to not give an advantage to those using computers, an extra five minutes were tacked on.
If you want real time quotations, you have to pay for it -- and you have to pay a premium price. They are offered by several firms -- including Bloomberg and Dow Jones. |
