Cannot escape symbols in Stocks #16

Open TylerCode opened 7 years ago

TylerCode commented 7 years ago

For example, using Ivona, if you have the S&P 500 stock on your list (or in my specific case, the voo stock) it will simply stop working after it pronounces the "S".

Can provide any additional details.

try adding this line symbol = symbol.replace("&",' and ').strip() to get_stocks.py on line 32.

Let me know if that works, and I'll add it to the main branch.

That worked perfectly, should probably add some of the common symbols for example, I've seen % and - in several stocks. (Probably just replace - with nothing.)
