Markets

-m picks the market bare tickers belong to. India (in, the default) and the US (us) have their own lists and rules; crypto (crypto), currency pairs (fx) and gold and silver (commodity) trade around the clock or 24x5; and seven more stock exchanges come from one market table in src/market.rs.

Global exchanges

stockwise -m uk quote VOD BARC          # VOD.L, BARC.L — prices in pence (118.20p)
stockwise -m jp history 7203 -p 1y      # Toyota, 7203.T
stockwise -m hk quote 700 5             # 0700.HK, 0005.HK
stockwise -m au sectors                 # S&P/ASX 200 sector indices
stockwise markets --global              # every exchange's main index, open or closed now

What each row holds:

• Symbols: the Yahoo Finance suffix bare tickers get. Symbols that already say where they trade (TCS.NS, ^FTSE) pass through unchanged.
• Currency: prices use the local symbol (£, €, ¥, HK$, S$, C$, A$). London quotes shares in pence: prices print as 118.20p, market caps (which Yahoo reports in pounds) as £27.38B, and portfolio totals convert pence at GBP’s rate ÷ 100. Enter London costs in pence too (portfolio add VOD.L 100 118.2). The bots and the simulator size positions in pounds, so they refuse -m uk for now.
• Benchmarks for markets (-m uk markets leads with the FTSE 100, FTSE 250 and FTSE All-Share); the first one is the markets --global row.
• Sectors where Yahoo has a usable set: TOPIX-17 sector ETFs (Japan), Hang Seng sub-indices (Hong Kong), iShares S&P/TSX sector ETFs (Canada), S&P/ASX 200 sector indices (Australia). The UK, Germany and Singapore have none, so sectors, rotation and sectorcmp say so.
• Universe: 14–15 large caps scanned by movers, screen and the bots.
• Session and time zone: European and Australian summer time are computed (no time-zone database needed); Tokyo, Hong Kong and Singapore have lunch breaks, during which is_open is false and alerts wait.
• Holidays (src/clock.rs): weekday closures and half days from each exchange’s own calendar — LSE business days, Deutsche Börse’s trading calendar, JPX’s holiday page, SEHK circulars CT/075/25 and CT/077/26, ASX’s trading calendar, TMX holiday notices, and for SGX the Ministry of Manpower public holidays it follows (2026 cross-checked against SGX’s monthly trading-day counts; 2027 provisional for SGX and TSX until they publish). Years outside a table fall back to “every weekday trades”, and markets --global warns about it.
• Tax: stockwise tax has rules for India, the US and the UK only. Other listings are left out of an estimate and named.

Commodities

-m commodity resolves GOLD (or XAU) to COMEX gold futures GC=F and SILVER (XAG) to SI=F; other bare tickers are NSE listings, for gold and silver ETFs (GOLDBEES) and Sovereign Gold Bonds. So history gold, chart silver, technical gold and alerts work on them. stockwise commodity shows spot in ₹/g, ₹/10 g and ₹/kg; see commands.md for where every number comes from — and what has no free source (MCX).

Indian government bonds

stockwise bonds reads CCIL’s tenor-wise indicative yields (RBI’s benchmarks as the fallback) and RBI’s list of outstanding G-secs, and prices bonds with bonds calc. markets shows the India 10-year yield. Details and limits are in commands.md.

Adding an exchange

1. Add a variant to Exchange and a MarketInfo row to GLOBAL_MARKETS in src/market.rs, in the same order (a test checks the order). Check every symbol against Yahoo Finance first.
2. Add its holiday table to src/clock.rs (weekday closures and half days, from the exchange’s own calendar) and list the years in official_years. If its time zone has summer time not covered by a TzRule, add the rule with a test of the changeover instants.
3. Add its title to the messages! table in src/i18n.rs (MarketXx).
4. If the exchange quotes in a new currency, add its symbol to currency_symbol in src/market.rs.
5. cargo test market clock checks suffixes, universes, hours, that every holiday is a weekday in a covered year and that half days trade.

Updating holiday tables

Exchanges publish next year’s list between June (HKEX) and December (NSE, TMX). Add the rows, move the year into official_years, and run cargo test clock.
