Yahoo finance charts beta: How to access real-time quotes?

Question

(running SuSe linux with firefox 1.5.0.7)

Answer 1

Yahoo does offer real-time quotes, but they're not free. Info is at:

http://billing.finance.yahoo.com/realtim...

The Yahoo Finance Charts Beta (which I really like) says at the bottom "Quotes delayed at least 15 minutes." If you click on this, you get another page which also has a link to the offer for Real Time Quotes.

At the page which describes Real Time Quotes, there's a graphic with tabs. One of the tabs is for Charts. But the charts in the picture are not the Finance Charts Beta.

So it looks to me like there are two kinds of charts. The Beta charts are free and use delayed quotes. If you sign up for Real-Time Quotes, you get different charts that do access them.

Answer 2

The beta is just a new format which is better than the old way.

The real-time quotes is something you have to subscribe, you may have 30 days trial though.
