Gold and Silver Prices - Stocks App

Hi there,


I tried to add the Gold and Silver prices to my stocks application (as I did some time ago, as well).


I tried to put in exactly "XAUUSD=X" and "XAGUSD=X", but neither worked. It just shows "No result found"...


I tried to find it with another iphone where the XAUUSD=X is already in the list, but it also shows no results.


Tested with iOS versions 8.4 and 9.3.1 and Iphone 6 and Iphone 5s.


Thanks for your help!

iPhone 6, iOS 9.3.1

add a new item for Gold in USD, add the following as the stock symbol...
XAUUSD=X
XAU is the symbol for Gold, USD is the symbol for USD.
Others I use are:
Silver - XAGUSD=X
Canadian in USD - CANUSD=X
Euro in USD - EURUSD=X

In the absence of desired results along the line of what you have tried,

did you check into the App store for products (some free, some have a

required in-app purchase to upgrade) for Gold, Silver, etc prices?


Some examples in the App Store (for iDevices) include:


• BlackGold - Oil, Gas, Gold, & Silver Tracking - on App Store:

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/blackgold-oil-gas-gold-silver/id294444490?mt=8


These may not reflect those precious metals Stock price, just the market

trading prices in selected world trading center Spot Price instead. For

speculative metal stock trading, market is different than actual metal price

where one would buy and hold metal, instead of mining company stocks.


Anyway, you may have to check into the developers section or site to see

if someone knows how to add what you're trying; the iOS may have changed

to not allow the method you are trying. The Codes could have changed, since

several years ago, to reflect those metal price results. Or you may have to

enter them into the application differently now.


Maybe someone will see your question and offer a tip on why you haven't

been able to make the old method work now in the iOS; it used to work back

in 2008 or so. Not sure why it doesn't now.


Good luck in any event! 🙂
