Netscript Trade Information eXchange (TIX) API
|
||
|
==============================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
The Trade Information eXchange (TIX) is the communications protocol supported by the World Stock Exchange (WSE).
|
||
|
The WESE provides an API that allows you to automatically communicate with the
|
||
|
`Stock Market <http://bitburner.wikia.com/wiki/Stock_Market>`_. This API lets you write code using Netscript
|
||
|
to build automated trading systems and create your own algorithmic trading strategies. Access to this
|
||
|
TIX API can be purchased by visiting the World Stock Exchange in-game.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Access to the TIX API currently costs $5 billion. After you purchase it, you will retain this
|
||
|
access even after you 'reset' by installing Augmentations
