# GET Quote

Retrieve a real-time quote for one or more instruments. Unlike the legacy account-scoped quote endpoint (`/v1/api/accounts/{account}/quote`), this route does not require an account name. It resolves instruments by name and returns the latest quote from your NinjaTrader data feed.

You can request multiple instruments in a single call by passing a comma-separated list. All instruments are quoted concurrently.
