Does your code actually log you into Yahoo for the real time data? As it stands, you're just reading (as you say), the static data - however, you're not actually doing anything with it.

Button1 does the connection and outputs the stream, Button3 looks to add data to a grid, but there is no connection between them.

I don't know if yahoo connects in the same way as gmail, but this may help (sorry, it's in C#, but easily ported over)
