Stocks - Live Quotes for VSCode

Keep an eye on your stocks listed on NYSE, NASDAQ, AMEX, ARCA, and BATS exchanges while using VS Code, with the "Stocks" extension.

Features

Add as many stock symbols as you like to the status bar, and they will be updated every 60 (default) seconds (this is configurable). Just set vscode-stocks.stockSymbols to an array of stock symbols to monitor.

Yahoo Finance symbols (indicies, futures, crypto) are supported. Prefix the Yahoo Finance symbols with YF:. Example: YF:GC=F would return Gold futures price.

NOTE: It is HIGHLY recommended to use a refresh interval of 60000 (60s) if you are pulling Yahoo Finance symbols to avoid getting rate limited.

Shows prices during extended trading hours (pre-market and post-market) automatically.

Example:

"vscode-stocks.stockSymbols": [
    "GOOG",
    "MSFT",
    "AAPL",
    "AMZN",
    "YF:GC=F",
]

It can show symbols color-coded by gain/loss with the setting vscode-stocks.useColors.
