Market Lab is a terminal-native runtime for market data, research, scripting, backtesting, and execution.
Market Lab gives traders, researchers, scripts, and AI agents one command surface for market data, quantitative studies, historical simulation, and validated execution.

- BULK provides native public market data, embedded market rules, account state, and live order execution through

Live execution is explicit. CLI orders require confirmation; script execution requires --venue bulk and direct ctx.trade or ctx.cancel calls. --dry-run and script backtest never sign or submit live orders.
