FAQ

Why did the service stop sending data?

The MVP is an early iteration of a project that has an incredibly large vision. This prototype is hosted on low-spec servers and so may crash at unexpected times. Sometimes, particular feeds may crash while others remain functional. If this happens we will have to restart the service. Please contact us if anything unexpected happens!

How have you implemented your data feed?

The GitHub repository for the service is public.

Are we allowed to fork and extend your implementation?

Absolutely! The project is completely open source.

Which ticker symbols can we access for each supported exchange?

Each exchange only supports one trading pair by default - one of BTCUSD, BTCUSDT, or one of the derivatives of those pairs.

Do I have to use Python to stream data from your service?

No, any programming language which supports websocket connections can use the service.

Do you have any code for dumping the data from your service into a file on disk?

We have a service on our backend that dumps a few of our exchanges into an AWS S3 Bucket, and are planning to allow the public to access this via REST APIs, GraphQL, e.t.c. Otherwise, if you wanted to handle this yourself, you can write code that, for example, dumps the data into a csv file as you receive it.

My request is returning error code 1 even though it’s formatted well!

An error response with code 1 means that the request was malformed. The JSON Standard requires JSONs to be sent with double quotes, and does not accept single quotes. Make sure you aren’t sending any requests which use single quotes to delimit string fields.
