Background
The real-time stock market involves capturing, processing, and providing data in a light and efficient way. Several methods for getting stock market data have been utilized with limited functions. In developing countries such as Iraq, exchange shops and satellite channels do not have a reliable method for getting stock market prices in Iraqi dinars. In this paper, I try to solve the issue by proposing an accurate Real-Time Stock Market Trend Window Using XPath and Html Agility Pack. The trend window shows stock prices of metals, energy, and currencies simultaneously in Iraqi dinars and in three different languages.
Methods
XPath, which stands for XML Path Language, and Html Agility Pack are used for bringing real-time stock market data into a stock market window. The trend window is designed by using C# for its front-end and back-end designs and SQL Server for its data warehouse.
Results
Currencies, metals, and energy prices are displayed simultaneously in a stock market trend window. Every ten seconds, the trend window is refreshing to show the latest prices.
Conclusion
The window shows the currencies, metals, and energy prices continuously in Iraqi dinars and in three different languages. It can be used in developing countries by Stock traders, satellite channels, and anyone who needs or is interested to know the prices of the stock markets. Future research might include more improvements to the trend window to have extra features.
