zfin quote
Show the latest quote for a symbol, with a price chart and recent history.
Usage: zfin quote <SYMBOL> [--since <WHEN>] [--export-chart <PATH>]
Prints the last price, the day's open/high/low, volume, and the
day-over-day change, followed by a price chart over a recent window
(the last ~3 months by default) and a table of the last 20 trading
days. Quotes come from Yahoo
(TwelveData fallback) and are never cached -- so this command needs
network access and does nothing useful in --refresh-data=never mode.
The inline chart renders as a Kitty image (price + Bollinger bands +
volume + RSI) when your terminal supports it, falling back to a braille
price line otherwise. Force a mode with the global
--chart flag (auto / braille / WxH).
Use --since <WHEN> to change how far back the chart reaches. WHEN
accepts an absolute YYYY-MM-DD, a relative shortcut (1W, 1M,
1Q, 1Y), or ytd. It governs both the inline chart and the
--export-chart PNG; the 20-day history table is always the last 20
trading days regardless.
Supports --export-chart <PATH> to render the chart as a 1920x1080
PNG instead of text (see export charts
and the projections page).
