How to get text from a <td> using BeautifulSoup?

I try to get the text from an html looking like this:

</td><td align='center'>&nbsp;</td><td align='right'>0.1200</td><td align='left'><img

I'm interested in getting the number "0.1200".

My code is this:

`url = "http://...."
source_code = requests.get(url)
plain_text = source_code.text
soup = BeautifulSoup(plain_text, "lxml")
for link in soup.findAll('td', {'align': 'right'}):
    for row in link.find_next_sibling("td"):
        print(row)

I get an error message "TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable". Any sugestions on fixing the problem?

Can you try this out please? (It is hard to help you out if you don't give us the URL)

Code:

soup = BeautifulSoup(plain_text, "lxml")
for link in soup.findAll('td', {'align': 'right'}):
    print(link.text)
