Title: Trading Bot- Database Post by: Wiss on November 16, 2017, 09:58:17 AM Hi,
I want to implement a trading bot - therefore i am looking for an API where you can get values of candles. I have checked the bittrex API - but there you just get the current price of an trading pair. Do you know where I can get the actual price and the candle data? Thx!

it supports 300, 900, 1800, 7200, 14400, and 86400 as intervals in seconds. example (taken from the documentation): https://poloniex.com/public?command=returnChartData¤cyPair=BTC_XMR&start=1405699200&end=9999999999&period=14400 there are other small exchanges such as bleutrade which offer the same feature but i don't think it is worth writing a API wrapper for them if you just want the chart data. |
