Tick-level Trades

What is this endpoint for?

Tick-level data is the most granular level of trading data, and contains every single trade that occurs or centralized and decentralized exchanges. The data is normalized and timestamped and contains information such as the price and volume of each trade. For DEX’s specifically, we also provide additional information on the user address, the blockchain, the pool address and transaction hash related to the trade.

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) . code (String) - The Kaiko code for the instrument. Explore instruments, codes and exchanges in the Instrument Explorer or by using the Reference API endpoint.	cbse spot btc-usd

Configuring a wildcard

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

For example, the configuration below would deliver trades for BTC/USD across all exchanges where it’s supported:

exchange: * class: spot instrument: btc-usd

Fields

Field	Description
additionalProperties	Additional properties, specific to the exchange.
amount	Quantity of asset bought or sold (can be in base_asset, quote_asset or the number of contracts).
class	Instrument class, empty when not mapped.
code	Instrument code, empty when not mapped.
exchange	Instrument exchange code.
sequenceId	Sequence ID for event. Sortable in lexicographic order.
id	Trade ID, empty string when not present.
price	Price for the trade.
tsExchange	The timestamp provided by the exchange for the transaction.
tsCollection	The timestamp for when Kaiko received the trade from the exchange.
tsEvent	The timestamp the data became available in the Kaiko system.
side	- UNKNOWN: Unknown side (not specified). - BUY: Buy side. - SELL: Sell side. See "taker_side_sell" Explained
