get_quote_tables -> ValueError: No tables found

[sethbowers97]

In efforts to write a script which will notify me of any large spikes in volume, I need to iteratively refresh the current trading volume on the day. I have been trying to do this using currentVolume = si.get_quote_table(ticker, dict_result=False).iloc[16][1] in a while loop.

However, I get the following error: File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/yahoo_fin/stock_info.py", line 293, in get_quote_table tables = pd.read_html(requests.get(site, headers=headers).text) File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pandas/util/_decorators.py", line 311, in wrapper return func(*args, **kwargs) File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pandas/io/html.py", line 1098, in read_html return _parse( File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pandas/io/html.py", line 926, in _parse raise retained File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pandas/io/html.py", line 906, in _parse tables = p.parse_tables() File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pandas/io/html.py", line 222, in parse_tables tables = self._parse_tables(self._build_doc(), self.match, self.attrs) File "/opt/virtualenvs/python3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pandas/io/html.py", line 552, in _parse_tables raise ValueError("No tables found") ValueError: No tables found

This continually crashes the code. Is anyone else having this issue? I'm not sure why it would be unable to find the quote table.

Sincerest apologies if this is a novice-level question. I'm new to the API. Feel free to make any suggestions at all.

@sethbowers97, do you mind sharing the ticker that's causing the problem?

Thanks for your time, I realized that the issue was elsewhere in the code, nothing to do with yahoo_fin. Sorry for the waste of time, and thank you for making this library open source!
