You should probably use a list instead. This is a FAQ (see 7.21):
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html
Here is about how you might do it (untested):
pricelist <- list()
pricelist[['IBM']] <- pricelts('IBM',quote="Close")
pricelist[['QQQQ']] <- pricelts('QQQQ',quote="Close")
par(ask=T)
lapply(pricelist,plot)
Does this do what you want?
