I run an oil and gas news website, i tried all the joomla! options available to display NYMEX futures prices on my site(oil, natural gas, metals, an so on) none of them did exactly what i needed, i decided to contact the staff at wis.ro and after explaining to them what i was looking for, they developed the extension. Great support, great job, i recommend it, if you have an extra request i´m shure these guys will handle it.
