Don't read this one, I want to delete it. Moving the topic from 8266 to ESP 32, maybe won't have to ask

We got the ticker to work, so I added ESP Now code for the 8266.

Trouble is, I can’t get the stock data into the ESP Now sender queue, because it’s declared somewhere funky within loop.

quote_msg holds the stock price and changes. I want to use it to send the stock data to the ESP Now receiver, but it’s not declarable.

Please tell me how to get quote_msg into ESP Now at the end of the same loop.
