productivity/ticker (Go) like the similarly-named productivity/tickrs 
tracks stock/crypto/stockindexes using data obtained from Yahoo Finance.

The difference between them is that tickrs (Rust) is primarily a 
graphing program with a very simple portfolio/holdings facility. Average 
prices have to be manually calculated and only one 'portfolio' can be 
configured.

productivity/ticker presents numerical data only, for multiple 
portfolios, and properly tracks different currencies and major/minor 
pricing like GBP (Pounds)/GBp (Pence), which is needed in some markets. 
It also handles multiple lots per security and calculates the average cost.

For this reason, I suggest it is worth having both in the ports tree.

This port is v5.3.0 which implements the major/minor currency handling.
