How to know which market my ticker is a part of?

[garethcurtis]

Hi,

Firstly - this is a great library. I'm really impressed so thanks. I have a query about the markets though. Is there an easy way to tell which market a given ticker belongs to? Sometimes it's obvious i.e. BTCUSD = crypto. But sometimes, it's less obvious, I found Gold in CFD rather than commodities. For some reason Silver is not in CFD though?

I've got my price fetching script working against a market I specify, but it would be amazing if I can adapt it to work across any market.

Or am I completely off on a tangent here?!

If I do this:

Then it doesn't seem to require to know the market like this line would:

 query = Query().set_markets(market).select('name', 'close', 'exchange').where(
         col('name') == (ticker),
     ).order_by('name', ascending=True)

Any help/advice, much appreciated!

Apologies if I've missed something obvious here!

Thanks.
