    tstock aapl -b 24 -t 60min # the past 24 60-minute-intervals of $AAPL, 20 lines high
    tstock -s shopify # search the API for keyword "shopify"
    tstock shop.trt # chart of $SHOP on the TRT exchange
    tstock btc -c GBP -w # chart of the price of Bitcoin in GBP with rockets
    tstock usd/eur # chart of the price of USD in euros
```

Run `tstock TICKER` to get the a chart of `$TICKER`. Use `-b COUNT` to specify the number of intervals back you want to pull. `-t INTERVAL` will specify the time interval of each candlestick. Use `-y LINES` to specify the length of the chart's y axis.

Use the search function `tstock -s KEYWORD` to search the AlphaVantage API for tickers.

You can get international markets by specifying a code after `.`. For example, to get SAIC Motor Corporation on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, run `tstock 600104.SHH`. The `-s` option is useful for finding the exchange codes for foreign exchanges. For example:

```
tstock tesco -s
The search returned the following results:
TSCO.LON (Tesco PLC)
        Reigon:         United Kingdom
        Type:           Equity
        Currency:       GBX
```

Now we know the ticker, we can get fetch the chart with `tstock tsco.lon`.

For more options, run `tstock -h`

# Notes

- The free tier of the API is limited to 500 API calls per day, 5 calls per minute.
- If you are using Windows, the ANSI escape codes will not display properly in the default cmd shell or PowerShell. Please use a terminal emulator that supports ANSI escape codes such as <a href='https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/windows-terminal/9n0dx20hk701?activetab=pivot:overviewtab'>Windows Terminal</a>.
