Get Market Search

Search for securities using partial matches on symbols or company names to quickly locate relevant market instruments. The results are ranked by average trading volume, enabling users to identify actively traded securities efficiently. This functionality supports straightforward and effective market search capabilities within the Brokerage API.

Search vs. Lookup: Both endpoints accept a q query that can be a symbol or a company name. This endpoint (/v1/markets/search) is the broader of the two — it does not offer exchange or security-type filters, but does let you include or exclude indices from the results via the indexes parameter. If you need to narrow results to specific exchanges or security types (stock, etf, index), use the lookup endpoint instead.
