Streaming de datos de mercado por WebSocket

Por qué usar WebSocket

• Updates are pushed as prices change, which is more timely than polling REST on a timer and does not use your per-minute request allowance.
• One connection can subscribe to many symbols, and several connections can subscribe to the same symbol without affecting each other.
• The protocol is compatible with iTick, so existing subscription code only needs a new endpoint.

Formato de los mensajes

// Subscribe / unsubscribe. types: tick, quote, depth, kline@1
{"ac":"subscribe","params":"AAPL$US,700$HK","types":"quote,tick"}
{"ac":"unsubscribe","params":"AAPL$US","types":"quote"}

// Heartbeat
{"ac":"ping","params":"1731688569840"}

// Pushed message
{"code":1,"data":{"s":"BTCUSDT","r":"BA","ld":83988.54,"v":0.00019,"type":"tick"}}

Ejemplo en JavaScript

const ws = new WebSocket("wss://api.itick.dev/crypto?token=YOUR_API_KEY");

ws.onopen = () => {
  ws.send(JSON.stringify({ ac: "subscribe", params: "BTCUSDT$BA", types: "quote,tick" }));
  // Send a heartbeat at least every 30 seconds
  setInterval(() => ws.send(JSON.stringify({ ac: "ping", params: String(Date.now()) })), 25000);
};

ws.onmessage = (event) => console.log(event.data);
