Removing Dollar and comma from string

Without regex, you can try this:

String output = "$123,456.78".replace("$", "").replace(",", "");

do like this

NumberFormat format = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();
Number number = format.parse("\$123,456.78");
System.out.println(number.toString());

output

123456.78

Try,

String liveprice = "$123,456.78";
String newStr = liveprice.replaceAll("[$,]", "");

replaceAll uses regex, to avoid regex than try with consecutive replace method.

 String liveprice = "$1,23,456.78";
 String newStr = liveprice.replace("$", "").replace(",", "");

Here is more information Oracle JavaDocs:

liveprice = liveprice.replace("X", "");
