Output shape

emits a stream of JSON objects representing either tick updates or 5-second bar data for the specified symbol, each output as a workflow execution trigger

For ticks mode, triggered data can be filtered by trigger conditions and throttled by update interval; for bars mode, a complete OHLC bar is emitted every 5 seconds during connection. Connection errors and reconnection events are logged internally, and workflow triggers are emitted only on matching conditions.
