qtrn

⚡ qtrn ⚡

The official cli tool for making financial markets analysis as fast as you are.

Pronounced "quote-tron" as a throwback to those awesome financial terminals of the 80's. This project is intended as a living example of the capabilities of the finance-go library.

Commands

The current available commands are:

• quote - prints tables of quotes to the current shell
• options - prints tables of options contract quotes to the current shell
• write - writes tables of quotes/history to csv files
• chart - (beta) prints a nifty sparkline chart of security for various time frames
