With the Market Metrics [**Exchange** **endpoint**](https://app.gitbook.com/s/ltAbhvgBfrAWlpUnC7ys/monitoring-solutions/kaiko-market-explorer/exchanges#what-is-this-endpoint-for), you can use the following parameters to source the specific information you're looking for:&#x20;

| Paramater   | Value                    |
| ----------- | ------------------------ |
| exchange    | huob                     |
| start\_time | 2024-04-01T00:00:00.000Z |
| end\_time   | 2024-04-11T00:00:00.000Z |
| interval    | 1d                       |
| page\_size  | 100                      |
| sort        | asc                      |
