Live pull currency from yahoo #2

How can i implement live pull instead of call the code every time? 

@currency(12.00, 'USD')
Torann commented 10 years ago

A live pull for each currency conversion isn't really realistic. I designed this so that it could be setup as a cron job. That way it can automatically update itself.

Hope that helps answer your question :-)
