Yahoo Finance generally supports two different mechanisms for querying security data.
The first returns current values for a set of fields, for a given ticker. In this package
these can be retrieved by using a series of get_xxx methods, which take a ticker as an
argument, and returns a Nullable value as a result. Each field supported by Yahoo has a
corresponding get... method. For example:
julia> using YStockData
julia> YStockData.get_previous_close("IBM")
Nullable(136.75)
julia> YStockData.get_company_name("IBM")
Nullable("International Business Machines")A higher level function, get retrieves all available fields, and returns the result as a
Dictionary.
julia> YStockData.get("IBM")

"ticker_trend" => Nullable{Float64}()
⋮ => ⋮The second mechanism returns OHLC time series values for a ticker and given time period.
This data is available via the get_historical function, which takes the ticker, a start
data and an end date as arguments. This function returns a DataFrame as its result.
