# Finam Trade API Skill

## Setup

**Prerequisites:** `$FINAM_API_KEY` and `$FINAM_ACCOUNT_ID` must be set in your environment.

If not configured by environment, follow these steps:
1. Register and obtain your API Key from [tokens page](https://tradeapi.finam.ru/docs/tokens)
2. Obtain your Account ID from your [Finam account dashboard](https://lk.finam.ru/)
3. Set environment variables:
```shell
export FINAM_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
export FINAM_ACCOUNT_ID="your_account_id_here"
```

Obtain JWT token before using the API:

```shell
export FINAM_JWT_TOKEN=$(curl -sL "https://api.finam.ru/v1/sessions" \
--header "Content-Type: application/json" \
--data '{"secret": "'"$FINAM_API_KEY"'"}' | jq -r '.token')
```

**Note:** Token expires after 15 minutes. Re-run this command if you receive authentication errors.

## Market assets

jq -r ".$MIC[:$LIMIT] | .[] | \"\(.symbol) - \(.name)\"" assets/equities.json
```

### Search Assets by Name

Find a stock by name (case-insensitive) across all exchanges:

```shell
QUERY="apple"
jq -r --arg q "$QUERY" 'to_entries[] | .value[] | select(.name | ascii_downcase | contains($q)) | "\(.symbol) - \(.name)"' assets/equities.json
```

### Get Top N Stocks by Volume

Pre-ranked lists of the 100 most liquid equities for each market, ordered by trading volume descending:

```shell
N=10
jq -r ".[:$N] | .[] | \"\(.ticker) - \(.name)\"" assets/top_ru_equities.json
