Simple prediction-market trade commands

Usage: bullpen trade [OPTIONS] <COMMAND>

Commands:
  buy   Buy prediction-market shares
  sell  Sell prediction-market shares
  help  Print this message or the help of the given subcommand(s)

Options:
      --output <OUTPUT>
          Output format for command results

          [possible values: table, json]

      --env <ENV>
          Target environment to connect to (overrides config.toml)

          [env: BULLPEN_ENV=]
          [possible values: staging, production]

      --config <CONFIG>
          Path to a custom config.toml file (overrides $BULLPEN_CONFIG and the default location).

          Explicit --config and BULLPEN_CONFIG paths fail closed: if the file is missing, the CLI exits validation instead of silently loading defaults. Credentials still resolve via BULLPEN_HOME, so set BULLPEN_HOME too when isolating a session.

      --read-only
          Enable read-only mode: blocks all mutating commands

      --non-interactive
          Suppress interactive prompts; does NOT imply --yes for money-moving commands

          [env: BULLPEN_NON_INTERACTIVE=]

  -h, --help
          Print help (see a summary with '-h')

  # Preview a $5 No buy without signing or submitting
