## Query it

Every applicable form factor, grouped by endpoint family. Response payloads are real captures, sampled 2026-08-18 and trimmed; your run's values and dates will differ.

### Use signals — `/v2/signals/{signal}`

One signal across the market: who matches now, who matched then, and a push when someone starts. (https://tickerbot.io/docs/endpoints/signals.md)

#### Live — every ticker with adx_14 above a cutoff

```bash
curl -G "https://api.tickerbot.io/v2/signals/adx_14" \
  --data-urlencode "condition=> 61.72456526397753" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY"
```

Response (sampled 2026-08-18, trimmed):

```json
{
 "as_of": "2026-08-18T00:22:35.240Z",
 "signal": "adx_14",
 "condition": "> 61.72456526397753",
 "universe": null,
 "count": 2,
 "results": [
  {
   "ticker": "CMBO",
   "name": "Wayfinder Dynamic U.S. Interest Rate ETF",
   "value": 97.89936637622246
  },
  {
   "ticker": "BENJ",
   "name": "Horizon Landmark ETF",
   "value": 97.87962585608796
  }
 ]
}
```

#### As-of — the same read at a past date

```bash
curl -G "https://api.tickerbot.io/v2/signals/adx_14" \
  --data-urlencode "condition=> 61.72456526397753" \
  -d "asof=2026-05-20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY"
```

Response (sampled 2026-08-18, trimmed):

```json
{
 "as_of": "2026-05-20",
 "signal": "adx_14",
 "condition": "> 61.72456526397753",
 "universe": null,
 "count": 2,
 "results": [
  {
   "ticker": "CMBO",
   "name": "Wayfinder Dynamic U.S. Interest Rate ETF",

   "name": "Alpha Architect 1-3 Month Box ETF",
   "value": 96.12691734312942
  }
 ]
}
```

#### Subscribe — webhook when a ticker starts matching

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.tickerbot.io/v2/signals/adx_14/subscribe" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY" \
  -d '{"condition": "> 61.72456526397753", "target_url": "https://example.com/hooks/tickerbot"}'
```

Returns 201 with the created webhook — the same shape as GET /v2/webhooks/{id}, plus a one-time signing_secret for HMAC verification.

### Use scan — `/v2/scan`

The whole market through a WHERE clause — this signal composed freely with any other column. (https://tickerbot.io/docs/endpoints/scan.md)

#### Live — the whole market, ranked by this column

```bash
curl -G "https://api.tickerbot.io/v2/scan" \
  --data-urlencode "q=adx_14 IS NOT NULL" \
  -d "order=adx_14" -d "columns=adx_14" \
