## Description

Use for price history, OHLCV/K-lines, market-data source discovery, or showing a candlestick chart in a conversation. Fetch data for local analysis or share a chart using OpenAlice market references.

# Market data and charts

OpenAlice's Market UI and `alice market` share the same K-line service.
Workspace shells already select their Alice Project. Outside a Workspace, use
`openalice exec --project <key> alice market ...`.

## Find and read a series

```bash
alice market search-bars --query AAPL
alice market bars --bar-id 'yfinance|AAPL' --interval 1d --count 300 --output bars.json
```

Copy an exact `barId` from search results. It identifies a source as well as an
instrument: two feeds for the same symbol are different series. Do not rewrite
native symbols or guess broker account IDs. If source discovery is empty,
`alice market vendors` shows configured vendor availability.

The result contains `bars` (OHLCV) and `meta`. Use the file in local Python,
JavaScript or shell analysis; omit `--output` for stdout. Existing output files
are not overwritten. `alice market bars --help` lists window options and an
explicit `--asset-class` hint for vendor lookups that cannot resolve the class.
The `alice-analysis` skill covers optional formula and snapshot shortcuts.

Check the returned coverage and freshness metadata, especially the earliest
and latest records, fetch time and possible delay. The age of the last bar is
not measured feed latency; market closures and bar boundaries matter. Do not
present a delayed or historical observation as a live quote.

## Show a chart in a reply

Write a market reference directly in reply prose when a chart helps:

[[market/yfinance|AAPL/1d]]

The syntax is `[[market/{barId}/{interval}]]`. Copy the discovered barId intact,
including any slash in its symbol; the final slash separates the interval.
Intervals are `1m`, `5m`, `15m`, `30m`, `1h`, `4h`, `1d`, `1w` (availability
varies by source). The reference requests the latest 300 bars, not a saved
snapshot of an earlier analysis.
