    Setup complexity is LOW. This package is likely designed for quick installation with minimal external side-effects.

  2. 2

    Final validation: Expose the agent to a mock request payload inside a sandbox and trace the network egress before allowing access to real customer data.

python3 scripts/alpaca_cli.py order sell TSLA 5 --stop 200.00

# Stop-limit order
python3 scripts/alpaca_cli.py order sell TSLA 5 --stop 200.00 --limit 195.00

# Skip price validation (use with caution)
python3 scripts/alpaca_cli.py order buy AAPL 10 --limit 999.00 --force

Order Guardrails:

  1. Symbol validation — Rejects invalid/unknown tickers
  2. Buying power check — Blocks orders exceeding available funds, shows max shares
  3. Duplicate detection — Warns if you have open orders for same symbol/side
  4. Price validation — Warns if limit price is worse than market
  5. Market hours check — Detects pre-market, after-hours, and closed sessions
    • Pre-market (4:00 AM - 9:30 AM ET): Option to place pre-market order
    • After-hours (4:00 PM - 8:00 PM ET): Option to place after-hours order
    • Closed: Warns order will queue until market open
  6. Cost confirmation — Shows total cost and requires confirmation

Use --force to skip all confirmation prompts (use with caution).
