Korean market quotes (KOSPI / KOSDAQ / SK Hynix / Samsung) with capitulation-reversal detection. Use whenever reading the US memory/storage complex (MU / DRAM / SNDK / WDC / STX / SMH) — Korea is the SOURCE market and leads the US tape; Longbridge does not cover KRX. 存储板块见底了吗 / 洗盘结束了吗 / capitulation / Korean margin calls / has the flush ended.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.

# Korea Market Korean quotes + a **capitulation-reversal** test, from the Yahoo Finance chart API. Stdlib only, no third-party deps, goes through `_shared/client.py` (cache + throttle + output contract). ## Why this skill exists **Longbridge does not cover KRX.** It returns `[]` for `000660.KS` / `005930.KS`. The tempting workaround — read Korea through the US-listed proxies **EWY** (Korea ETF) and **KORU** (3× Korea) — **lies to you**: - They are **FX-contaminated** (a won move shows up as a price move). - They are **frozen while Seoul is still trading** — they only reprice during US hours. **The 2026-07-14 proof.** Reading the proxies, EWY looked ~flat (−0.13%) — nothing to see. The real Seoul tape that same session: | | Seoul (real) | Proxy said | | -------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------- | | SK Hynix | low −9.1% intraday → **closed +2.9% on 1.55× volume** (heaviest of the entire selloff) | EWY "flat" | **That was a textbook capitulation bottom, and the proxy hid it completely.** Anyone watching EWY would have missed the exact session they were waiting for. **Rule: when the question is about Korea, read Korea

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add kansoku-trade/kansoku --skill korea-market --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From kansoku-trade/kansoku, a repository with 272 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
