Markets
This section is the reference for each market's conventions and quoted vol surfaces. Its convention tables are printed from the library's registries on every build, so they cannot drift from the release. Product pages link here instead of restating a convention. For how a vol surface is quoted and read, start with How vol surfaces work.
