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.

GET /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"}
GET /health

Check if TickerSync is running and which brokers are connected.

Response

{"status": "ok", "platforms": ["DAS Trader"]}

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.

Build Your Own Integration

The TickerSync API is intentionally simple. To send a ticker to your broker from any tool or script:

  1. Make sure TickerSync is running (check GET /health)
  2. Send a GET request to http://localhost:9999/set?ticker=SYMBOL
  3. 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.
