Open **Terminal** in the sidebar. The page greets you by name and offers a prompt box, **Ask about any trade idea**. Anything you type there goes to the [Analyst](/the-analyst/analyst.md). ## Sterling Price Targets Two lists, **Outperform** and **Underperform**, of the companies where Sterling's view differs most from the market. Sort by **Highest** or **Lowest**. Each row shows the company's performance since the target was published, the upside or downside to the target, when it was published, and its sources. Drag the divider to give the lists more room. Select a company to open its pages. ## Macro hypotheses Sterling's current views on the big picture, grouped by theme such as **Commodities** and **Multi-Asset**. Select **Read in analyst** on any of them to open the full argument in the Analyst. ## Trade Ideas Cards for Sterling's current trade ideas: long or short, the date, performance since publication, and upside. **Read in analyst** opens the thesis. The full catalog, with filters, is on the [Trade Ideas](/research/trade-ideas.md) page. ## Unusual Trades A live table of unusually large or unusual trades as they print, with the time, ticker, action, amount, and instrument type. New flagged trades flash in as they arrive. Type a ticker in **Search by ticker** to narrow the table, and scroll for history. Select a row to ask the Analyst about it; the Analyst opens in a new tab with the trade as context. ## Trading Pit A preview of the forum's latest threads. **Open Trading Pit** takes you there. See [The Trading Pit](/the-trading-pit/trading-pit.md). ## Searching for a company **Search companies** in the top bar, or **Cmd+Shift+K** (Mac) / **Ctrl+Shift+K** (Windows), finds any company Sterling covers by ticker or name. Select a result to open its [company pages](/research/research.md). If nothing matches, the search reads **Outside of current coverage** and offers to record a coverage request. See [Requesting coverage](/the-analyst/requesting-coverage.md). --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.sterlinglabs.co/the-terminal/terminal.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
