Commodities on Stock Function?

There are web apps for both, not sure about the new apps though. However I have not seen one app that incorporates all of the things you mentioned in one.

Oil is call ICrude. I also use the web app by CNN for the markets.

I'd like to know the same...

Would love to have the Silver & Gold spot prices. Don't know why Yahoo doesn't have these easily accessible.

AUSPOT
AGSPOT

Would make sense to me...

I tried the xauusd=x, and xagusd=x but neither work for me.

yeah, I have crude oil futures displaying on my iPhone stock app.

This is how it works...

Crude Oil is CL
Then there is a month indicator.

Jan = F
Feb = G
Mar = H
Apr = J
May = K
Jun = M
Jul = N
Aug = Q
Sep = U
Oct = V
Nov = X
Dec = Z

Then the two digit year.

Soooo the crude oil selling right now is CLV08 for October delivery

The iPhone will find it, but you have to tell it what exchange you're looking in, and Crude trades on NYMEX....

SO simply plug this in - CLV08.NYM and that's it. At the end of the month, you delete that one, and plug in CLX08.NYM for November.

As far as the other ones, they work the same way, but don't know their symbols, so I'll leave you and google to figure that out.

I entered the code you have for crude oil prices and it did not come up with the correct price. Is there something I missed? I entered CLV08.NYM and it came up with 120.21 and the closing price was around 81 today...any help?

After reading Brett's very useful reply above and a little mucking about, I think I got it:

Go to http://finance.yahoo.com/indices (no trailing slash), it shows many indexes, and shows all of Yahoo!'s symbols for them. Click Commodities Futures (left center of the page), and oil shows as CLX08.NYM. (As Brett explained, the 3rd byte will change every month or so; I just added these to my phone last week, so I don't know when they change, but since oil has about 10 dates listed and gold has 4, I'm guessing they change sometime during the month that they specify.)

There is also something you can do with futures but they have to be updated periodically. So that's not really useful IMHO.
