What players can do
Real markets-style flows built for roleplay servers: quotes, trades, and balances on the handset.
Live quotes
Prices stay fresh with Finnhub-backed updates on a regular cadence so screens match the real tickers you enable.
Buy & sell
Players trade enabled cryptocurrencies and stocks with configurable minimums, maximums, and transaction fees.
Portfolio
Holdings and total value are summarized so players always see where they stand.
Transfers & history
Send assets to other players and review purchases, sales, and transfers in one history feed.
Inside the Markets app
Tabs and screens mirror how players expect a trading app to behave-without leaving the phone.
Dashboard
Overview of portfolio value, positions, and recent activity at a glance.
Cryptocurrencies
Browse enabled coins, compare moves, open detail views, and place trades.
Stocks
Same flow for equities-pick a symbol, read the tape, and execute size you allow.
Charts & detail
Deeper views per symbol with charting so players can read trend before they commit.
Before you go live
Three prerequisites from the documentation-get them right once, then the app stays hands-off.
YSeries installed
The Markets app ships as part of the YSeries phone ecosystem-run the core phone stack first.
Start tgg-markets
Ensure the resource after YSeries; it creates tables, registers the app, and begins price pulls.
Finnhub API key
Use a free Finnhub key (e.g. set marketsApiKey in server.cfg); free tier supports typical server call rates.
No. It is an add-on for YSeries. You need the YSeries phone system plus the tgg-markets resource in the documented order.
You can enable up to 20 cryptocurrencies and 20 stocks. Enabling more than that can cause extra symbols to stop receiving quotes until you trim the list.
Check the Finnhub key, stay within API rate limits, and confirm you have not exceeded the per-type symbol cap. Restart the resource after config changes.
Confirm yseries and tgg-markets both start cleanly, with markets after the phone core, and watch the server console for dependency or SQL errors.
About this add-on
Markets for YSeries
Markets layers a serious trading surface on top of YSeries: configurable tickers, player portfolios, and P2P transfers that still feel like a phone app-not a separate UI frame.
Pair it with your economy rules by tuning fees, limits, and which symbols exist so speculation stays fun without overpowering your server loop.
