For my software (Trade Strategist), I use historical daily quotes. If you need these, you can use finance.yahoo.com. On the site you can click on "Historical Quotes", and then you have the choice to have it in a table/spreadsheet format. This is easy to parse with NSScanner. To download the data, NSURL does the trick. I think the whole data retrieval and parsing is about 50 lines. (Of course, you need to know the right 50 lines ;-)

All,

Could someone tell me how to write a Cocoa application that can get stock quotes from the web? Is it relatively easy for a new Cocoa programmer, or am I biting off more than I can chew?

Thanks,

Andy Bates.
