Stock API

The goal of this project was test out APIs on our own time and figure how to apply it into a business aspect or entertainment. During my time in this project I learned a lot more on how APIs worked. I also experimented with different usages and functionalities that the API offered. The link to my project is here. The link to the API is here. The API is free and has a lot of different features that companies can take advantage of. There are a lot of companies out there now offering stock options on an application on your phone, and even online. We can use this API to give features to the consumers to see their portfolio, see the growth or volume traded, and even search for stocks. I have a couple of shares for both of those stocks as well, so it’s easy for me to use this API to look at the price for each minute, hour, daily. Using this API you could create a code that alerts you if the stock hits a price you are not comfortable with.
