In order for Stockbeat to server a purpose it need to be able to obtain stock data from somewhere... For the default exchange we will use Alpha Vantage.

Describe the solution you'd like
Multiple API offer access to Stocks historical data. Each "providers" could be implemented as a module. A default provider should be elected to allow for a quick an easy configuration. If possible a provider that does not require an account or subscription would be the best.

None, this a required feature.
