Present the offered price to one or more end-users, with a timer indicating the time to expiration.1. If a user accepts the price, call [Create Quote Execution](#operation/CreateQuoteExecution) with the amount to buy or sell.1. Call [Get Quote Execution](#operation/GetQuoteExecution) to monitor for completion and know when the funds from the execution are available.It's important to show end-users the latest available price. If you cacheprices to show them to multiple users, you should refresh the cache onceper second.You can call [List Quote Executions](#operation/ListQuoteExecutions) toreview or construct reports on quote execution activity.
