To get data from Google Finance into Google Sheets, you can
use the built-in Google Finance functions. Here's how you can do it:
Open Google Sheets and create a new or existing spreadsheet
where you want to import the data from Google Finance.
Select the cell where you want to import the data.
To get the current price of a stock, use the following formula:
Copy code
=GOOGLEFINANCE("ticker", "price")
Replace "ticker" with the stock symbol or ticker of the company whose data you want to retrieve. For example, to get the current price of Apple Inc., use:
Copy code
=GOOGLEFINANCE("AAPL", "price")
Press Enter to import the data. The cell will display the
current price of the stock.
You can use various other attributes with the GOOGLEFINANCE
function to retrieve different types of financial data. Here are some examples:
To get the stock's opening price, use:
Copy code
=GOOGLEFINANCE("ticker", "open")
To get the stock's highest price for the day, use:
Copy code
=GOOGLEFINANCE("ticker", "high")
To get the stock's lowest price for the day, use:
Copy code
=GOOGLEFINANCE("ticker", "low")
To get the stock's volume traded for the day, use:
Copy code
=GOOGLEFINANCE("ticker", "volume")
You can also use the GOOGLEFINANCE function to retrieve
historical data, such as stock prices over a specific date range.
Note that the GOOGLEFINANCE function may have a slight delay
in retrieving the latest data, and it may not work for certain stocks or in
specific regions. Additionally, the data provided by the GOOGLEFINANCE function
may be delayed by up to 20 minutes.
By using the GOOGLEFINANCE function in Google Sheets, you
can easily retrieve real-time or historical financial data from Google Finance
and incorporate it into your spreadsheets for analysis or tracking purposes.
