Nobody that looks at stock information would want to see something like this.

  because...?

    Because it's missing tons of data! Volume, per-hour trades, market cap, 52 week high/lo, eps, etc. Look at any quote page and see how many data points they provide and then ask why anyone would look at this beyond the blue background. If I were you, I'd bake in some neato HTML trick. Maybe real-time chart updates or some way to visualize the volume and the price in 3d or tied to events or something else...

Looks nice I must admit :) Are you fitting a quadratic curve? When you have multiple points what do you plan to use - a spline?

  Why is that? I added that to make sure we don't get sued because somebody bought stock based on our page. I mean, what if our page doesn't auto update anymore and the information is old. I sure as hell don't want people suing me for that. Although it's highly unlikely, you can never be too careful.

    I'd be more worried about the way of datamining.
