Request Parameters

Required

• symbol string

  The company's ticker symbol.

Optional

• 52week boolean

  Enable the output of 52-week high and 52-week low data in the quote output. By default this parameter is false if omitted.

• extended boolean

  Control the inclusion of extended hours data in the quote output. Defaults to true if omitted.

  • When set to true, the most recent quote is always returned, without regard to whether the market is open for primary trading or extended hours trading.
  • When set to false, only quotes from the primary trading session are returned. When the market is closed or in extended hours, a historical quote from the last closing bell of the primary trading session is returned instead of an extended hours quote.

Response Attributes

Success

• s string

  Will always be ok when there is data for the symbol requested.

• symbol array[string]

  The symbol of the stock.

• ask array[number]

  The ask price of the stock.

• askSize array[number]

  The number of shares offered at the ask price.

• bid array[number]

  The bid price.

• bidSize array[number]

  The number of shares that may be sold at the bid price.

• mid array[number]

  The midpoint price between the ask and the bid.

• last array[number]

  The difference in price in percent, expressed as a decimal, compared to the closing price of the previous day. For example, a 3% change will be represented as 0.3.

note

• When the market is open for primary trading, change and changepct are always calculated using the last traded price and the last primary session close. When the market is closed or in extended hours, this criteria is also used as long as extended is omitted or set to true.
• When extended is set to false, and the market is closed or in extended hours, quotes from extended hours are not considered. The values for change and changepct will be calculated using the last two closing prices instead.

• 52weekHigh array[number]

  The 52-week high for the stock. This parameter is omitted unless the optional 52week request parameter is set to true.

• 52weekLow array[number]
