Python code examples

We've added Python code examples to all our Rest API documentation pages. This forms part of our ongoing mission to improve your user experience with Kaiko documentation. To see an example, head to any Rest API page and select the "Python" tab in the "Request Examples" section.

Implied Volatility Enhancements

We've made significant improvements to Kaiko Implied Volatility. Users can now configure their IV using one of three calculation methods:

• Deltas

• Strikes

• Forward log moneyness

We've also made several enhancements, allowing finer granularity in your computations.

Kaiko Implied Volatility helps you manage risk in the options market with confidence, calculating the potential volatility of any crypto asset with user-provided criteria. It's made specifically for crypto, backed by our trusted market data. Contact us if you'd like to learn more about it.
