I am in Jamaica and I would like to add equities from the Jamaica Stock Exchange.

Is that something you guys could add support for?

Or, if you could point me to the parts of the code that I should look into re: the exchanges and how it gets data and perhaps I could look into potentially submitting a PR for this support.

Thanks!

The app uses Yahoo Finance API to retrieve ticker symbols and quotes. As long as the equity is listed on Yahoo Finance, it is likely to be supported. For instance, equities traded on the Canadian stock exchange typically have a suffix such as .TO, (eg. SHOP.TO)

Hrmm....so to add another exchange, I would have to create a fork and add support for that one basically?
