Stock exchange to blow one’s top charge onshore? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

moorage

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'charge onshore?' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how they can define each other.

'stock exchange to blow one's top' is the wordplay.
'stock exchange' becomes 'moo' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'to blow one's top' becomes 'rage' (I've seen this in another clue).
'moo'+'rage'='MOORAGE'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for moorage that I've seen before include "Securing of craft" , "Fee paid for tying up a boat" , "Making fast" , "Charge for tying up a ship" , "Berthing fee" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
