MATLAB: Reading in stock data from a website

javaurl

I'm trying to use an existing .m file from a user (https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/41940-james-o-shaughnessey-s-trending-value-screener). It appears that the file no longer is reading in data from a URL. The file hangs indefinitely until it is manually terminated. It appears no data is being read in. I'm not familiar with any of the java functions and reading the help files hasn't really helped much. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated. Thank you!

I was able to figure out the issue. It was an issue with the URL needing to be https instead of http. The web browser was taking care of it, but there was an issue reading from the MATLAB file without the correct https. I appreciate the suggestions.
