Terminal UI

fastboxex-tui shows live markets, arenas, your portfolio and the event log.

fastboxex tui                     # or run fastboxex-tui directly
fastboxex tui --runtime arena     # auto (default), exchange or arena

Saved settings from fastboxex setup log you in immediately, so --runtime (or FASTBOXEX_RUNTIME) chooses where. Without saved settings the login screen appears, listing the servers from Config.toml or else Campus and Singapore.

Watching an arena

Log in to the arena runtime. An arena you own or joined appears in the Arenas panel with its state, price and traders. The owner sees every participant; a participant sees their own seats. Arenas you are not part of do not appear.

Logs go to ~/.local/share/fastboxex/logs. Include the latest one when you report a problem.
