To operate currency simply import it: import StockStalker.currency as currency

*Note: the base for all conversions are in EUR *Note: values of currency are near-realtime

usd = currency.Currency("USD", 10)

Then you can convert it like so:

eur = currency.Convert(usd, "EUR")

If a currency is not supported, the following exception will be raised:
