pip install stonks-cliOr with pipx (recommended — keeps the tool isolated):
pipx install stonks-clistonks-cli stores your portfolio in a YAML file. By default the file is read
from ~/.config/stonks/portfolio.yaml; you can override this with the
-p / --portfolio option (see Usage).

Drop :ro if you want add / remove commands to persist changes back to
the host.
Looks bullish.
