Hi, Google finance will be easiest to parse (yahoo finance does not display some fields you need). I can develop the script you want on python within day or two (5 days is an upper bound). Have a nice day, Nikolay.

Hello, I will be interested in working on this project. I have built financial products (see profile) that parse data from Yahoo! Finance and Google, primarily the stock quotes and dividend history. My code will be in VB6 and will output the results to XLS file. My bid is $30, and code will be delivered in 4 business days including testing. I am based in Mumbai, India (some there might be time-zone delay on 1-day max). This is my first bid on GetAFreeLancer. Sincerely, Adheer Pai.

Greetings, First of all I think it is important to let you know I am new to this website, which means I will work hard to make sure I have a good rating, I have been with "Rent A Coder" and Elance for over 2 years and have great ratings on both of those sites. Now to your request, what you are looking for is called a SPIDER and this is one of my specialties. I can show you several samples where I have done the same sort of thing with various websites. I have designed spiders that store data in various types of formats including but not limited to: Excel, text files, email generation, online SQL database, richtext documents and more. I am a firm believer in options and my spiders always have many of these. Also i think it is important to let you know that I guarantee all my work for 1 year, this means if the spider ever stops working bnecause the website has changed their parsing methods I will recode it to work with the new methods for you at no additional charge. We3ll hope to hear from you soon, be sure to read my profile as it has alot of information on it.
