Definition
This section provides unweighted price data for every asset and trading pair across all supported centralized exchanges, accessible via both latest and historical endpoints.Details
Price endpoints are categorized into two types:- Asset: Returns a single price for the asset across all exchanges, based on VWAP with a lookback period of 1. This method avoids price distortion from low-volume outliers and is commonly referred to as a reference or global price.
- Pair: Returns price data for a specific trading pair, with the option to filter by individual exchange or aggregate across all supported exchanges.
(High + Low + Close) / 3 This methodology provides a normalized, exchange-agnostic price point.
