Currency Convesion in Stocks Tab

[redd214]

i apoligize if someone has brought this up before, but i searched and didnt find anything. this is a lil trick that i just now read about and hadnt heard of before.

u can use the stock tf3d 'stocks tab' as a currency convertor

EXAMPLE: goto your 'stocks tab', add a new quote

add 'usdeur=x' (without quotes) to find us dollar to euro conversion, 'usdcad=x' for us dallar to canadian dollar etc.

not a break thru but its a neat little trick that i had never heard of before

That is pretty cool, I travel a lot and this is handy. Now if I could only remember the currency code for half of the countries I visit.

Question: How about adding the Dow Jones Industrial Average or Standards and Poors? (S&P) (DJI)

I cant add these indices, and Id like to have them. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Ok it seems that it is based on Yahoo finance abbreviations. S & P is ^GSPC and Dow Jones is ^DJI. Anyway if anybody needed it there it is and if you need more just look for it in Yahoo Finance.
