## What it is
Ticker is a terminal-based application for watching live stock, cryptocurrency, and derivatives prices in real time. It also tracks the value of stock positions with support for multiple cost basis lots and pre/post market quotes.

## Use cases
- watch live stock prices in my terminal
- track my stock portfolio positions from the command line
- monitor cryptocurrency prices in real time
- view pre and post market quotes for tickers
- track cost basis for multiple lots of a stock
- set up a terminal watchlist for stocks like AAPL and TSLA

## When to choose
- you want lightweight, real-time market quotes without leaving the terminal
- you need to track position values and cost basis across multiple lots
- you prefer a TUI over browser-based finance dashboards
- you want a cross-platform tool installable via brew, winget, snap, or docker

## When to avoid
- you need charting, technical analysis, or historical data
- you want to execute trades or place orders
- you need a GUI or web-based portfolio manager
- you require broker account integration for automatic position sync
