Documentation

Stoa Markets runs in the web application at markets.stoaexchange.com. These pages document the supported ways to work with it from outside the browser.

Stoa CLI

stoa is the command line client for Stoa Markets. It signs in with your Stoa Markets account, browses the catalog, opens requests for quote from a request file, and reads the quotes dealers return. It does not accept quotes. That step stays in the web application, where the terms of the trade are on the screen when you commit to them.
