Reference and Market Data
Reference and market data endpoints provide public, unauthenticated access to instrument metadata, real-time market data, and historical pricing information. These endpoints form the foundation for price discovery, order book analysis, and trading decision workflows.
Core Data Types
Instrument Reference Data
Use public/get-instruments to retrieve the full catalog of tradable instruments. Each instrument includes:
- Contract specifications (tick size, quantity decimals, leverage limits)
- Product classification (perpetual swap, future, option)
- Trading status and expiry information
- Underlying index reference
This endpoint should be called on application startup and periodically refreshed to detect new listings or contract expirations.
Real-Time Market Data
| Endpoint | Use Case | Update Frequency |
|---|---|---|
public/get-book | Order book depth (bids/asks) | Snapshot on request (up to 50 levels) |
public/get-tickers | 24h summary (high, low, volume, open interest) | Updated per trade |
public/get-trades | Recent trade history | Last 150 trades (7-day max window) |
