Several live prices in one request

Fetch gold, EUR/USD and GBP/USD together and print a small price board with spreads and freshness.

The request

/v1/prices takes a comma-separated list of symbols and returns one quote per symbol, in the order you asked for them.

curl -H "X-API-Key: $TICKFEED_API_KEY" "https://api.tickfeed.pro/v1/prices?symbols=XAUUSD,EURUSD,GBPUSD"

Cost: this request (one unit per symbol): 3 units. One unit is $0.002 / £0.002 / €0.002 (in your account's currency), taken from your prepaid balance only when the request succeeds. Full prices.

Print a price board

from tickfeed import TickFeed

tf = TickFeed()
for q in tf.prices(["XAUUSD", "EURUSD", "GBPUSD"])["prices"]:
    flag = "" if q["freshness"] == "fresh" else f"  ({q['freshness']})"
    print(f"{q['symbol']:<7} bid {q['bid']:<10} ask {q['ask']:<10} spread {q['spread_points']} pts{flag}")

spread is in price units (dollars for gold, the quote currency for pairs); spread_points is the same spread counted in points, the smallest price step for that symbol, so it's easier to compare across instruments.
