How to use this template

Simple usage

Type the following, replacing XXXX with the company's stock symbol:

{{lse|XXXX}}

Example:

{{lse|BARC}}

By entering only the stock symbol, it will not provide a direct link to the stock listing. Instead you will be redirected to a search form. To get a direct link you must use the four way key.
