Trades

Definition

A trade is a match between a buy order and a sell order executed on an exchange. Every trade on a market pair records the buy or sell side, quantity, price and time.

Each trade carries a trade ID and timestamp so individual trades can be distinguished.

Details

Historical trades are provided by exchange and market code. The side is marked BUY or SELL, and earlier trades can be paged through using the timestamp of the last trade retrieved.

Historical trades are available over the REST API, with a maximum of 200 records per request.
