InstrumentList

A collection of instruments. Use this type for use cases that require not just a single instrument, but multiple (e.g. to populate a watchlist).

When holding information for each instrument is required, it is recommended to use the Portfolio type, though.

Notes:

• The instrument list schema does not explicitly include identifiers in the id section, as there is not a common standard for such identifiers. Applications can, however, populate this part of the contract with custom identifiers if so desired.
