Integrations
TickerSync exposes a simple HTTP API. Anything that can make an HTTP request can send tickers to your broker — scripts, alerts, browser extensions, or custom tools.
API Reference
TickerSync listens on 127.0.0.1:9999 by default. Send a GET request with a ticker and it loads in your broker.
/set?ticker=AAPL
Sends a ticker symbol to your broker. TickerSync loads it in your broker instantly.
Response
{"success": true, "ticker": "AAPL", "message": "OK: AAPL"}
/health
Check if TickerSync is running and which platforms are connected.
Response
{"status": "ok", "platforms": ["DAS Trader", "TradingView Desktop"]}
Examples
curl
curl "http://localhost:9999/set?ticker=TSLA"
Python
import requests
requests.get("http://localhost:9999/set", params={"ticker": "TSLA"})
JavaScript
fetch("http://localhost:9999/set?ticker=TSLA")
PowerShell
Invoke-WebRequest "http://localhost:9999/set?ticker=TSLA"
Chrome Extension Free Convenience Tool
Free helper extension that detects ticker clicks on a handful of popular scanner websites and sends them to TickerSync using the API above. This is a convenience tool — you do not need it to use TickerSync.
No guarantees. The extension detects clicks by reading the HTML of third-party websites we don't control. Those sites can change their markup at any time and break the extension. If that happens, email us and we'll try to fix it. In the meantime, you can always send tickers to TickerSync your own way — scripts, hotkeys, alerts, or any HTTP client.
MaxTradingTools Extension
Currently attempts ticker detection on Warrior Trading and ChartsWatcher scanner pages. The extension popup will show "Webpage supported" or "Webpage not supported" based on your active tab.
How to install
Open the MaxTradingTools Chrome Web Store page and click Add to Chrome.
Confirm the installation in the Chrome prompt.
Click the extension icon in your Chrome toolbar — it should show "TickerSync running" with a green dot when TickerSync is running.
The extension is unlisted on the Chrome Web Store, so you won't find it by searching. Use the link above to install.
Build Your Own Integration
The TickerSync API is intentionally simple. To send a ticker to your broker from any tool or script:
- Make sure TickerSync is running (check
GET /health) - Send a GET request to
http://localhost:9999/set?ticker=SYMBOL - TickerSync loads the ticker in your broker
That's it. No authentication, no complex protocols, no SDKs. TickerSync only listens on 127.0.0.1 (localhost) so only apps on your machine can reach it.
