Convert a alexa command to multiple alexa commands

So I am trying to use Alexa's built in capabilities without using a skill, for getting multiple stock prices. Say I want to list multiple stock prices without having to specify each one. So I want the voice command "Alexa, play stocks" to convert to:

1. "Alexa, get me the stock price of Amazon" (this would then follow its usual Alexa command processing)

2. "Alexa, get me the stock price of Microsoft"

...etc

Now routines seem to be the perfect way to do this as I can simply add multiple actions. But there is no action to trigger a new Alexa voice command processing. But it seems like such a simple and obvious requirement, that maybe I am missing something here?

Hi,

thanks for your post.

At the moment it is not possible to "chain" custom Alexa requests within routines.

I'd suggest posting this as a feature request in Uservoice for Alexa over here.

Regards,
Gaetano
