market-feed
Unified TypeScript client for financial market data. Wraps Yahoo Finance, Alpha Vantage, Polygon.io, Finnhub, Twelve Data, and Tiingo under one consistent interface — with caching and automatic fallback built in.
The problem
Every free financial API speaks a different language:
// Yahoo Finance
result.chart.result[0].meta.regularMarketPrice
// Alpha Vantage
data["Global Quote"]["05. price"]
// Polygon.io
data.ticker.lastTrade.pYou write adapters, you add caching, you handle fallback — for every project, every time.
The solution
import { MarketFeed } from "market-feed";
const feed = new MarketFeed();
const quote = await feed.quote("AAPL");
console.log(quote.price); // always a number, always the same keyOne interface. Six providers. Zero API key required for Yahoo Finance.
Features
- Unified types —
Quote,HistoricalBar,CompanyProfile,NewsItem,SearchResultare consistent regardless of which provider answers - Zero production dependencies — uses native
fetch, works everywhere - Built-in LRU cache — configurable TTL per method, pluggable driver (Redis, Upstash, etc.)
- Automatic fallback — if Yahoo is down, tries Alpha Vantage, then Polygon
- Rate-limit aware — won't silently burn your free Alpha Vantage / Polygon quota
- Strict TypeScript — no
any, full autocomplete, compile-time safety - Multi-runtime — Node 20+, Bun 1+, Deno 2+ (via JSR), Cloudflare Workers
- Escape hatch — pass
{ raw: true }to get the original provider response - Exchange calendar — synchronous, offline-capable holiday and session detection for 8 exchanges + crypto (24/7)
- WebSocket streaming —
market-feed/wsopens a persistent WS connection to Polygon, Finnhub, Alpaca, or IB TWS; polling fallback for others;getOrderBook()for top-of-book bid/ask - Observable stream — market-hours-aware HTTP polling that pauses overnight and on weekends; emits
earnings_releasedevents when new quarterly reports are detected (includeFundamentals: true) - Price consensus — query all providers in parallel, get a weighted mean with confidence score
- Technical indicators — SMA, EMA, RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands, ATR, VWAP, Stochastic — pure functions, zero deps
- Portfolio tracking — live P&L, unrealised gains, day change across all positions
- Backtesting — single-asset pure-function engine + multi-asset
portfolioBacktest()with shared cash pool, position sizing, and benchmark comparison - Price alerts — async generator that fires
AlertEventon price/volume/change conditions, with debounce - ESG scores — environmental, social, and governance scores on
CompanyProfile.esgvia Yahoo Finance - Earnings, dividends, splits — structured historical corporate action data from Yahoo, Polygon, and Finnhub
- Financial statements — income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement via
market-feed/fundamentals - Options chains — full options chain with Greeks (delta, gamma, theta, vega) from Polygon.io via
market-feed/options - Macro indicators — 15 FRED economic series including CPI, GDP, unemployment, and yield curve data via
market-feed/macro - Stock screener — filter a universe of symbols by price, volume, market cap, 52-week range, or any custom predicate via
market-feed/screener - React hooks —
useQuote,useStream,useAlerts,useWebSocket,useOrderBookfor React ≥ 18 and React Native viamarket-feed/react - CLI —
npx market-feed quote AAPL— no install required - Crypto & Forex —
isCrypto()/isForex()helpers, CRYPTO calendar exchange (always open) - Browser bundle —
market-feed/browserwithcreateFetchWithProxy/installCorsProxy; all providers acceptfetchFnfor CORS proxy routing; works via CDN without a bundler - tRPC / HTTP router —
market-feed/trpcexportscreateMarketFeedRouter()andcreateHttpHandler()for exposing market data as typed tRPC procedures, GraphQL resolvers, or a fetch-compatible REST API
Subpath modules
market-feed ships sixteen optional subpath modules alongside the core client.
market-feed/ws
True WebSocket streaming — tick-by-tick trade data from Polygon and Finnhub, with automatic polling fallback for other providers.
import { connect } from "market-feed/ws";
import { MarketFeed, FinnhubProvider, PolygonProvider } from "market-feed";
// Finnhub — real-time WebSocket
const provider = new FinnhubProvider({ apiKey: process.env.FINNHUB_KEY! });
// Polygon — real-time WebSocket (requires paid plan for true real-time)
// const provider = new PolygonProvider({ apiKey: process.env.POLYGON_KEY! });
const controller = new AbortController();
for await (const event of connect(provider, ["AAPL", "MSFT", "TSLA"], {
signal: controller.signal,
})) {
switch (event.type) {
case "trade":
console.log(`${event.trade.symbol}: $${event.trade.price} × ${event.trade.size} shares`);
break;
case "connected":
console.log(`Connected to ${event.provider}`);
break;
case "disconnected":
console.log(`Disconnected (attempt ${event.attempt}, reconnecting: ${event.reconnecting})`);
break;
case "error":
if (!event.recoverable) throw event.error;
break;
}
}
controller.abort(); // stop the streamUnlike market-feed/stream (which is HTTP polling), market-feed/ws opens a persistent WebSocket connection and yields individual trade executions in real time.
Provider support
| Provider | WebSocket | Notes |
|----------|-----------|-------|
| PolygonProvider | Native WS | Auth via JSON handshake, subscribes to T.* trades |
| FinnhubProvider | Native WS | Token in URL, per-symbol subscribe |
| AlpacaProvider | Native WS | Free IEX or paid SIP feed; key/secret auth |
| IbTwsProvider | Native WS | Local TWS / IB Gateway; level I market data |
| YahooProvider | Polling fallback | Polls quote() every 5 s |
| AlphaVantageProvider | Polling fallback | Same as Yahoo |
WsOptions
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|--------|------|---------|-------------|
| wsImpl | typeof WebSocket | globalThis.WebSocket | Custom WS constructor for Node 18–20 |
| maxReconnectAttempts | number | 10 | Reconnects before closing |
| reconnectDelayMs | number | 1000 | Base delay (doubles per attempt, max 30 s) |
| signal | AbortSignal | — | Stop the stream |
Node 20
Node 21+, Bun, Deno, and Cloudflare Workers expose WebSocket globally. For Node 20, install the ws package and inject it:
import WebSocket from "ws";
connect(provider, ["AAPL"], { wsImpl: WebSocket as unknown as typeof globalThis.WebSocket })market-feed/calendar
Synchronous exchange calendar — no network, no async, works offline.
import {
isMarketOpen,
getSession,
nextSessionOpen,
nextSessionClose,
isHoliday,
isEarlyClose,
getHolidayDates,
getExchangeInfo,
} from "market-feed/calendar";
// Is NYSE open right now?
isMarketOpen("NYSE"); // true | false
// What session is it?
getSession("NYSE"); // "pre" | "regular" | "post" | "closed"
// When does it next open?
nextSessionOpen("NYSE"); // Date (UTC)
nextSessionClose("NYSE"); // Date (UTC)
// Holiday checks
isHoliday("LSE"); // false
isHoliday("NYSE", new Date("2025-04-18")); // true — Good Friday
isEarlyClose("NYSE"); // true on day before Thanksgiving
// All holidays for a year
getHolidayDates("NYSE", 2026); // Date[]
// Exchange metadata
getExchangeInfo("LSE");
// { id: "LSE", name: "London Stock Exchange", mic: "XLON",
// timezone: "Europe/London", openTime: "08:00", closeTime: "16:30", ... }Supports NYSE, NASDAQ, LSE, TSX, ASX, XETRA, NSE, BSE, and CRYPTO (always open — no sessions, no holidays). Holiday rules are computed from first principles — Easter via the Meeus/Jones/Butcher algorithm, all NYSE-specific rules (MLK Day, Presidents' Day, Juneteenth, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Good Friday), UK bank holidays, Canadian, Australian, German, and Indian exchanges. DST is handled via Intl.DateTimeFormat — no manual offset arithmetic.
market-feed/stream
Market-hours-aware async generator. Polls during open hours, pauses when the market is closed.
import { watch } from "market-feed/stream";
import { MarketFeed, YahooProvider, PolygonProvider } from "market-feed";
const feed = new MarketFeed({
providers: [
new YahooProvider(),
new PolygonProvider({ apiKey: process.env.POLYGON_KEY }),
],
});
const controller = new AbortController();
for await (const event of watch(feed, ["AAPL", "MSFT"], {
exchange: "NYSE",
interval: {
open: 5_000, // poll every 5s during regular hours
prepost: 30_000, // every 30s pre/post market
closed: 60_000, // check every 60s for session open
},
divergenceThreshold: 0.5, // % spread between providers
signal: controller.signal,
})) {
switch (event.type) {
case "quote":
console.log(`${event.symbol}: $${event.quote.price}`);
break;
case "market-open":
console.log(`${event.exchange} session started: ${event.session}`);
break;
case "market-close":
console.log(`${event.exchange} session ended`);
break;
case "divergence":
console.log(`${event.symbol} providers disagree: ${event.spreadPct.toFixed(2)}%`);
break;
case "earnings_released":
console.log(`${event.symbol} new earnings: EPS ${event.earnings.epsActual}`);
break;
case "error":
if (!event.recoverable) throw event.error;
break;
}
}
// Stop the stream
controller.abort();When marketHoursAware: true (default), the stream pauses completely during closed sessions — no wasted API calls overnight or on weekends. It emits market-open / market-close events at session boundaries. When the feed has multiple providers, it detects price divergence across them and emits divergence events. Set includeFundamentals: true to also receive earnings_released events when a new quarterly report is detected.
WatchOptions
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|--------|------|---------|-------------|
| exchange | ExchangeId | "NYSE" | Calendar to use for session detection |
| interval.open | number | 5000 | Poll interval (ms) during regular hours |

| signal | AbortSignal | — | Cancel the stream |
market-feed/consensus
Queries all configured providers simultaneously and returns a statistically-weighted price consensus.
Unlike feed.quote() which stops at the first successful provider, consensus() fires all providers in parallel and combines their results.
import { consensus } from "market-feed/consensus";
import { MarketFeed, YahooProvider, AlphaVantageProvider, PolygonProvider } from "market-feed";
const feed = new MarketFeed({
providers: [
new YahooProvider(),
new AlphaVantageProvider({ apiKey: process.env.AV_KEY }),
new PolygonProvider({ apiKey: process.env.POLYGON_KEY }),
],
});
const result = await consensus(feed.providers, "AAPL");
console.log(result.price); // 189.82 — weighted mean
console.log(result.confidence); // 0.97 — 0=no agreement, 1=perfect
console.log(result.spread); // 0.08 — max - min across providers
console.log(result.spreadPct); // 0.042 — spread as % of price
console.log(result.flags); // [] or ["HIGH_DIVERGENCE", "STALE_DATA", ...]
console.log(result.providers);
// {
// yahoo: { price: 189.84, weight: 0.33, stale: false, included: true },
// polygon: { price: 189.80, weight: 0.33, stale: false, included: true },
// "alpha-vantage": { price: 189.82, weight: 0.33, stale: false, included: true },
// }ConsensusOptions
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|--------|------|---------|-------------|
| stalenessThreshold | number | 60 | Seconds before a quote is stale. Stale providers get half weight. |
| divergenceThreshold | number | 2.0 | % deviation from median that marks a provider as an outlier |
| weights | Record<string, number> | equal | Custom weights per provider name (normalized automatically) |
Flags
| Flag | Meaning |
|------|---------|
| HIGH_DIVERGENCE | spreadPct exceeds divergenceThreshold |
| STALE_DATA | At least one provider returned a quote older than stalenessThreshold |
| SINGLE_SOURCE | Only one provider responded successfully |
| OUTLIER_EXCLUDED | At least one provider was excluded as a price outlier |
market-feed/indicators
Technical indicators as pure functions over HistoricalBar[]. No network, no async, tree-shakeable.

// Simple / Exponential Moving Average
const sma20 = sma(bars, 20); // IndicatorPoint[] — { date, value }[]
const ema12 = ema(bars, 12);
// Relative Strength Index
const rsi14 = rsi(bars, 14); // values in [0, 100]
// MACD
const macdResult = macd(bars); // MACDPoint[] — { date, macd, signal, histogram }[]
// Bollinger Bands
const bb = bollingerBands(bars, 20, 2); // BollingerPoint[] — { date, upper, middle, lower }[]
// Average True Range
const atr14 = atr(bars, 14);
// VWAP (cumulative from first bar)
const vwapPoints = vwap(bars);
// Stochastic Oscillator
const stoch = stochastic(bars, 14, 3); // StochasticPoint[] — { date, k, d }[]All functions return typed arrays starting from the first bar where enough data exists. They never throw for insufficient data — they return an empty array instead.

market-feed/react
React hooks for live market data. Requires React ≥ 18 (peer dependency).
npm install market-feed reactimport { useQuote, useStream, useAlerts } from "market-feed/react";
import { MarketFeed } from "market-feed";
const feed = new MarketFeed();
// Poll a quote every 5 seconds
function StockPrice({ symbol }: { symbol: string }) {
const { data, loading, error } = useQuote(feed, symbol);
if (loading) return <span>Loading…</span>;
if (error) return <span>Error: {error.message}</span>;
return <span>{symbol}: ${data?.price.toFixed(2)}</span>;
}
// Subscribe to a live watch() stream
function LiveFeed() {
const { event } = useStream(feed, ["AAPL", "MSFT", "GOOGL"]);
if (!event || event.type !== "quote") return null;
return <p>{event.symbol}: ${event.quote.price.toFixed(2)}</p>;
}
// Collect price alerts
function AlertLog() {
const { events, clearEvents } = useAlerts(feed, [
{ symbol: "AAPL", condition: { type: "price_above", threshold: 200 }, once: false },
]);
return (
<ul>
{events.map((e, i) => (
<li key={i}>{e.alert.symbol} triggered @ ${e.quote.price.toFixed(2)}</li>
))}
<button onClick={clearEvents}>Clear</button>
</ul>
);
}Hook reference
useQuote(source, symbol, options?) — polls a quote at a regular interval.
| Option | Default | Description |
|--------|---------|-------------|
| intervalMs | 5000 | Poll interval in milliseconds |
| enabled | true | Set to false to suspend polling |
Returns { data: Quote \| null, loading: boolean, error: Error \| null, refetch() }.
useStream(feed, symbols, options?) — drives a watch() async generator. Restarts automatically when symbols changes; stops on unmount via an internal AbortSignal.
Returns { event: StreamEvent \| null, error: Error \| null }.
useAlerts(feed, alerts, options?) — drives a watchAlerts() async generator. Accumulates triggered events; restarts when alert definitions change.
Returns { events: AlertEvent[], error: Error \| null, clearEvents() }.
useWebSocket(provider, symbols, options?) — drives a connect() WebSocket stream. Works in React Native (native WebSocket available globally). Yields trade ticks and connection events in real time.
Returns { event: WsEvent \| null, latestTrade: WsTrade \| null, error: Error \| null }.
useOrderBook(provider, symbol, options?) — drives getOrderBook() for live bid/ask updates. Works with Polygon, Alpaca, IB TWS, or polling fallback. Works in React Native.
Returns { orderBook: OrderBookEvent \| null, error: Error \| null }.
market-feed/trpc
Framework-agnostic procedure router. createMarketFeedRouter(feed) returns a typed plain object of async procedures. Works standalone, with tRPC, as GraphQL resolvers, or as a fetch-compatible HTTP handler.
import { createMarketFeedRouter, createHttpHandler } from "market-feed/trpc";
import { MarketFeed } from "market-feed";
const mf = createMarketFeedRouter(new MarketFeed());
// Call directly
const { quotes } = await mf.quote({ symbols: ["AAPL", "MSFT"] });
const company = await mf.company({ symbol: "TSLA" });
const news = await mf.news({ symbol: "AAPL", limit: 5 });tRPC v11
import { initTRPC } from "@trpc/server";
import { z } from "zod";
const t = initTRPC.create();
export const appRouter = t.router({
quote: t.procedure.input(z.object({ symbols: z.array(z.string()) })).query(({ input }) => mf.quote(input)),
company: t.procedure.input(z.object({ symbol: z.string() })).query(({ input }) => mf.company(input)),
news: t.procedure.input(z.object({ symbol: z.string(), limit: z.number().optional() })).query(({ input }) => mf.news(input)),
});HTTP handler (Next.js / Cloudflare Workers)
// app/api/market/[procedure]/route.ts
const handler = createHttpHandler(mf);
export { handler as POST };
// POST /api/market/quote {"symbols":["AAPL"]} → {"quotes":[...]}
// POST /api/market/company {"symbol":"AAPL"} → {"name":"Apple Inc.",...}market-feed/browser
Browser-native build with CORS proxy utilities. All providers use the native browser fetch and WebSocket APIs — no Node.js dependencies required.
import { MarketFeed, YahooProvider, createFetchWithProxy } from "market-feed/browser";
// Route requests through a CORS proxy in development
const proxiedFetch = createFetchWithProxy("https://corsproxy.io/?");
const feed = new MarketFeed({
providers: [new YahooProvider({ fetchFn: proxiedFetch })],
});
const quote = await feed.quote("AAPL");
console.log(quote.price); // $189.84Every provider accepts a fetchFn option so you can route only specific providers through a proxy, or through your own server-side API route in production.
// Production: proxy through your own backend
const serverFetch = createFetchWithProxy("https://my-app.example.com/api/proxy?url=");
const feed = new MarketFeed({
providers: [
new PolygonProvider({ apiKey: "...", fetchFn: serverFetch }),
new FinnhubProvider({ apiKey: "...", fetchFn: serverFetch }),
],
});installCorsProxy(proxyUrl) patches globalThis.fetch globally and returns a cleanup function — useful for development:
import { installCorsProxy } from "market-feed/browser";
const uninstall = installCorsProxy("https://corsproxy.io/?");
// All fetch() calls in your app now go through the proxy
uninstall(); // restore original fetchWorks via CDN without a bundler:
<script type="module">
import { MarketFeed, YahooProvider, createFetchWithProxy } from "https://esm.sh/market-feed/browser";
const feed = new MarketFeed({
providers: [new YahooProvider({ fetchFn: createFetchWithProxy("https://corsproxy.io/?") })],
});
const quote = await feed.quote("AAPL");
console.log(quote.price);
</script>market-feed/cache
Three official persistent cache drivers — drop-in replacements for the default LRU cache:
| Driver | Use case |
|--------|----------|
| createRedisCacheDriver(client) | Redis via ioredis, redis@4, or @upstash/redis |
| createUpstashCacheDriver({ url, token }) | Upstash REST API — edge-compatible |
| createSqliteCacheDriver(db) | SQLite — local persistence (better-sqlite3, bun:sqlite, node:sqlite) |
See Persistent Cache Drivers for full docs.

Using multiple providers
import {
MarketFeed,
YahooProvider,
AlphaVantageProvider,
PolygonProvider,
FinnhubProvider,
TwelveDataProvider,
TiingoProvider,
} from "market-feed";
const feed = new MarketFeed({
providers: [
new YahooProvider(),
new AlphaVantageProvider({ apiKey: process.env.AV_KEY }),
new PolygonProvider({ apiKey: process.env.POLYGON_KEY }),
new FinnhubProvider({ apiKey: process.env.FINNHUB_KEY }),
new TwelveDataProvider({ apiKey: process.env.TD_KEY }),
new TiingoProvider({ apiKey: process.env.TIINGO_KEY }),
],
fallback: true, // auto-try next provider on failure
});Caching
The default LRU cache stores responses in memory with sensible TTLs:
| Method | Default TTL |
|--------|-------------|
| quote | 60s |
| historical | 1 hour |
| company | 24 hours |
| news | 5 minutes |
| search | 10 minutes |
| marketStatus | 60s |
| earnings | 1 hour |
| dividends | 24 hours |
| splits | 24 hours |
| incomeStatements | 24 hours |
| balanceSheets | 24 hours |
| cashFlows | 24 hours |
| optionChain | 60s |
Override TTLs
const feed = new MarketFeed({
cache: {
ttl: 60, // default fallback TTL
maxSize: 1000, // max entries in memory
ttlOverrides: {
quote: 15, // aggressive refresh for real-time feel
company: 604800, // company profiles change rarely
},
},
});Disable caching
const feed = new MarketFeed({ cache: false });Persistent cache drivers
market-feed/cache ships three official persistent drivers:
// Redis (ioredis / redis@4 / @upstash/redis)
import Redis from "ioredis";
import { createRedisCacheDriver } from "market-feed/cache";
const feed = new MarketFeed({ cache: { driver: createRedisCacheDriver(new Redis(process.env.REDIS_URL)) } });
// Upstash REST (edge-compatible — Cloudflare Workers, Vercel Edge, Deno)
import { createUpstashCacheDriver } from "market-feed/cache";
const feed = new MarketFeed({
cache: { driver: createUpstashCacheDriver({ url: process.env.UPSTASH_URL!, token: process.env.UPSTASH_TOKEN! }) },
});
// SQLite (better-sqlite3 / bun:sqlite / node:sqlite)
import Database from "better-sqlite3";
import { createSqliteCacheDriver } from "market-feed/cache";
const feed = new MarketFeed({ cache: { driver: createSqliteCacheDriver(new Database("./cache.db")) } });See the Persistent Cache Drivers documentation for full details.

}Building a Custom Provider
Implement the MarketProvider interface to add any data source:
import type { MarketProvider, Quote } from "market-feed";
class MyProvider implements MarketProvider {
readonly name = "my-provider";
async quote(symbols: string[]): Promise<Quote[]> {
// fetch from your API, return normalised Quote objects
}
async historical(symbol: string, options) {
// ...
}
async search(query: string) {
// ...
}
}
const feed = new MarketFeed({ providers: [new MyProvider()] });Runtime Compatibility
