So if I understand you correctly, the 'prices' are going to be maintained by you in the spreadsheet, and not from real finance data. If this is the case, then you can do it.
I would suggest though that you use the published version of the spreadsheet as the data source. This will make the amount of hits non-issue, but the price is that the published data is cached for 5 minutes (you have to set the spreadsheet to be auto refreshed).
