All Implemented Interfaces:

EODQuoteFilter

public class YahooEODQuoteFilter
extends java.lang.Object
implements EODQuoteFilter

Provides a filter to parse the Yahoo end-of-day stock quote format. This format uses a date with the month name, prices are in dollars. The first column is the date, then open, high, low, close & volume. The final field is the adjusted close. This filter is not hooked up to the QuoteFilterList because we cannot currently ask the user to enter the missing symbol. Example:

 16-Oct-03,38.75,39.15,38.22,38.70,307300,38.70
