Since a long time I wanted to make an appliction that can fetch real time Equity share prices from web and store it on the local computer for further analysis. Now I took some time to implement the same and am posting the first beta version.  I named the application as QuoteLeacher as it leaches share prices from a given source.

As of now it downloads the data from www.nseindia.com; but in the future I’m planning to add other sources such as Yahoo Finance.

Following are the salient features of the application:

  • Connects to www.nseindia.com and fetches equity market details for the companies you specify
  • You can add as many companies as you want
  • Can refresh data automatically @ a specified interval either in Minutes or Seconds
  • Can write the data fetched into CSV files. The CSV file will automatically be stored in a folder with the particular date and the file name of the CSV will be in the format “mm-dd-yy hhmmss”
  • “Proxy settings” in the Settings dialog box has two options

    o If you connect to internet directly, Select Automatically detect settings

    o If you connect to internet through a proxy server, select Use Proxy server and provide the proxy settings. If you do not have a user name, password and domain, leave them blank.

The application is developed on .net Platform 2.0 and you will need to download and install .net Framework 2.0 from Microsoft
