WISro Yahoo Quotes 3.3 is an AJAX module for Joomla 1.5/1.0 that allows you to manage, configure and display up to 3 tickers with stock quotes from Yahoo Finance to your site; based both on AJAX automatic refresh and cache file system, you may choose and customize the look and functionality, including tickers control and on mouse over chart evolution display from regional Yahoo Finance stock market source.
If installed together with WISro Yahoo Quotes Component ( http://www.wis.ro/index.php/Joomla-Extensions/WISro-Yahoo-Quotes-Component/Detailed-product-flyer.html ), has the option of displaying, instead of the Yahoo's symbol name, a custom symbol's description from the component configuration (e.g. instead of Microsoft Corpora, it may display Microsoft); optional link of symbol's details page from WISro Yahoo Quotes Component, if the symbol is listed there.

I like this quotes component. Flexible settings for various kind of view, fast speed.
Software installed fine. I had a question about the implementation, and author responded in a reasonable time-frame. His suggestion was what I needed and I have used the product extensively since that point. Only downside is scarcity of documentation, although most features are self-evident.
The module is great, looks good and does what it says. however, their support is more than excellent. It's really the best support I have found.
I tried them all, free and commercial, and I ended up always not satisfied with the result. Until Cristi came up with his new version of the module and bingo. It simply is the best and the only real option to have stocks on the page. It works out of the box, but it also allows to work on the css to have the result you need.
Support is just as good: when I had a particular need and threw in a suggestion, Cristi came up with a .1 version of the module two days later, adding the feature.
The module works by itself and in combo with the component, which is so rich in possibilities and features that I could not believe my eyes when I first installed it. It allows to build a real finance page around it.
Job well done

This is the only good ticker module out there so look no further!
If one thing is great about this module is its support. I had emailed support about problems I was having and they were quickly solved and the bug fixed instantly!! This is a developer who cares about his products. A+++
