XLQ delivers live and historic worldwide stock market data for use in Microsoft Excel via formulae, or also standalone directly in the XLQ interface. The data is automatically updated as the market changes, allowing you to track the market, maintain a portfolio or perform personalized in-depth stock analysis directly from the familiar Excel interface. Features include more than 150 Excel formulae for the latest trade data including last price company name, exchange name, bid, ask, size, open etc. as well as daily, weekly and monthly historical stock data. Data can also be retrieved for any date in the past. XLQ can retrieve data from multiple sources (currently Yahoo, MSN and Intraday). The program runs in the system tray from where it indicates the current status and allows you to add/delete new stock symbols. XLQ can be used without Excel, but depends on it for full functionality.
