Hello, I am doing preliminary research for a project, would like to know if it is "possible" to use streaming data from stock markets within pd.

Let's say, the price of barley.

I am currently trying to figure out how to do this, but if someone has already succeeded in using streaming data in a patch, then I'd love to know how you did it

Thanks

Erin.

Sure you could do that. It depends on the format and source of the data. If you wish to process live feeds then you probably need some network objects to poll it from a website or XML feed.

Parsing it is childs play, it's usually some simple format like

Barley UP 1.4885
Sugar DOWN -1.8755
Shoes UP 108.4900
Hats UP 838.00
