The modules are well documented, it shows you how to collect the data, I want to improve it a little bit so that the data will be saved as CSV and you can use it for doing your research as a machine learning engineer. Here is the code that I created.
Without Coding
To make a bot which scrape most active stocks in Yahoo Finance without any input, follow these steps:-
1. To create a new bot, click DK extension and type “yahoo_most_active” and then click “ + New Api”.
2. Now open https://www.studioproper.com/collections/shop-all-products in the browser before training the bot, and click “Record” to train the bot.
3. Then Reload the page to add the URL to the event. https://finance.yahoo.com/most-active/,
4. Add static wait to take time for browser to load the page Datakund=>Wait=>Static=>3, to scrape the product name.
5.Then add scroll to end to add event to get all the stocks after scroll Datakund=>More=>Scroll to end, to scrape the stocks name.
6. Now right click on the website screen, then click Datakund=>Start Repeat, to add loop for scraping similar items.
7. Now click the keyboard icon to add the outputs such as symbol
