AFAIK you can not get single piece of fundamental.
But you can use AFL and Ascii import to do what you want.
This code gets shares outstanding info of a list saved to text file.
/// Save "Shares Outstanding" fundamentals from Yahoo finance to text file
/// Replace tickerlist be your own symbol list or single symbol
/// AFL code by fxshrat@gmail.com
/// @link https://forum.amibroker.com/t/adding-a-yahoo-fundamental-data-piece-to-norgate-database/17549/2
EnableTextOutput(0);
listnum = 0;//GetOption( "FilterIncludeWatchlist"); // or instead use some hardcoded number etc.
tickerlist = "AAPL,MSFT";//CategoryGetSymbols(categoryWatchlist, listnum);
shares_out = "";
Filter = 0;
trigger = ParamTrigger( "Create Shares out", "CLICK HERE" ) OR Status("action") == actionExplore;
if ( trigger ) {
if ( Status( "stocknum" ) == 0 ) {
for ( i = 0; ( nm = StrExtract( tickerlist, i, ',' ) ) != ""; i++ ) {
ih = InternetOpenURL( "https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/"+nm+"/key-statistics?p="+nm );
if ( ih ) {
str_repl = "";
while( ( str = InternetReadString( ih ) ) != "" ) {
if ( StrFind(str, ">Shares Outstanding<") )
str_repl = StrReplace(str, ">Shares Outstanding<", "\n");
}
InternetClose( ih );
str_ext = StrExtract(str_repl, 1, '\n');
str_ext = StrExtract(str_ext, 9, '>');
shares_out += nm + "," + StrExtract(str_ext, 0, '<')+"\n";
}
}
_TRACE(shares_out);
// save to file
fh = fopen("AmiQuote\\Download\\shares_out.txt", "w" );
if ( fh ) {
fputs( shares_out, fh );
fclose( fh );
} else
Error( "ERROR: file can not be open" );
}
}
Then you can do ASCII import via Format file (read documentation)
$NOQUOTES 1
$AUTOADD 1
$OVERWRITE 1
$SEPARATOR ,
$FORMAT TICKER,SHARES_OUT
Save content to file with file name yfso.format
to be saved to AmiBroker ..\Formats
folder and in same folder open import.types
file via some NotePad version and add following line YahooFinance_SharesOut (*.txt)|*.txt|yfso.format
to it.
Then use File - Import ASCII with appropriate "Files of type" selection and browse to ...Amiquote\Download
folder and import shares_out.txt
file.
If you do not understand something then please read documentation. It is all there already.
Upper codes are tested and working.
You may also automate file creation and import via AmiBroker batch.
