Abstract
Stock tape reading involves surveilling stock prices once in a while and recording stock prices. The method of observing stock prices may be television or stock exchange. The time step for recoding stock prices is every stock user’s experience and their theory, perhaps 3 min or 2 h and so on. As an example, the Taiwan stock market starts at 9:00 a.m. to 13:30 p.m. It will have a 4 h operating time. Splitting the 4 h operating time for tape reading is the skill of stock users. The stock price sequence generated by tape reading can be predicted by stock users, but finally, it is the stock user’s experience. Therefore, the meaning of tape reading is to record the stock price, but its concept should have no prediction purpose. This study used thread technology and proposed a tape-reading method with web scraping. This method can periodically scrape stock prices and generate a stock price sequence to Excel file. This application can satisfy the demand of these stock users, who are called day trading users. Because these day trading users want to gain stock price sequences minute by minute, rather than the stock exchange format day by day, and also ones which are better than the those provided by the stock website service, because its stock sequence format is limited and not normalized, these day trading users think that minute-by-minute stock price sequences are very clear to forecast. This study implemented the prior scheme and designed the GUI to query a company’s stock price and its stock news, even per second, etc., and how long it took to update the stock price, and the GUI also included a time-up feature to stop scraping stock prices if users just wanted to scrape stock prices periodically.
