API (testing)

https://gateway-v0-http.kaiko.ovh/api/stream/derivatives_instrument_metrics_v1

Request parameters

Parameter	Description	Examples
instrumentCriteria	A nested object to configure following properties for your stream: exchange (String) - The code(s) for the exchange(s) instrument_class (String) - The class(es) of the instrument(s) . The instrument must be a derivative class. code (String) - The Kaiko code for the instrument. Explore instruments, codes and exchanges in the Instrument Explorer or via API.	cbse option algo-btc
commodities	AlwaysSDICK_PRICE	SDICK_PRICE

Configuring a wildcard

A wildcard allows you to request all information we have on a specific instrument or exchange in the same stream. Use a * in place of the relevant exchange or class parameter.

For example, the configuration below would deliver all perpetual future contracts on OkEX. exchange: okex class: perpetual-future instrument: *

Response fields

Field	Description	Example
value	The value for the commodity (price, 24 hour volume etc) received in the message.	59583.2
legacySymbol	Exchange assigned Instrument identifier	btcusdcperpetual
exchange	Supported Exchanges	binc
commodity	The price of the underlying index, often as a weighted average across multiple exchanges' spot prices	index_price
	The mark price of the contract. It is used for calculating profit and loss (PnL) and liquidation price. Designed to be fair and avoid price manipulation.	mark_price
	Most recent traded price of derivative contract.	price
commodityKind	Always SDICK_PRICE	SDICK_PRICE
tsCollection	The timestamp for when Kaiko received the trade from the exchange.	2024-08-30T10:19:38.044166107Z
tsEvent	The timestamp for the interval.	2024-08-30T10:19:39.206955912Z
