Robinhood Data Parser & API

Robinhood is a leading US commission-free retail brokerage for stocks, options and crypto, and StockAPIS extracts its market data — real-time quotes, bid/ask spreads, options chains with Greeks, crypto prices and equity fundamentals — through a single REST API. Robinhood does not offer a public market-data API, so StockAPIS handles extraction and normalizes the data into the same schema you use for every other source, letting you query Robinhood, Webull and E*TRADE the same way without separate integrations.

Platform Overview

Market Position

• One of the largest US retail brokerages by funded accounts, publicly traded as NASDAQ: HOOD
• Mobile-first, commission-free trading across US equities, options, ETFs and crypto
• Pioneered zero-commission retail trading and fractional shares for individual investors
• No official public data API — StockAPIS provides the extraction layer and a unified schema

Data Coverage

StockAPIS exposes the Robinhood market surface relevant to retail trading:

• Stock quotes — real-time last trade price, bid/ask, bid/ask sizes, previous close and volume
• Options data — full options chains, strikes, expirations, implied volatility and Greeks
• Crypto data — prices, volume and quotes for supported crypto pairs
• Fundamentals — market cap, P/E, dividend yield, sector and key company metrics
• Instrument metadata — symbol mapping, instrument IDs and trading-halt status
• Historical data — daily and intraday price history for charting and backtesting

Quick Start

import stockapis
 
client = stockapis.Client(api_key="your-api-key")
 
# Real-time quote for a US equity on Robinhood
quote = client.robinhood.get_quote(symbol="AAPL")
print(f"Apple: ${quote['last_trade_price']}  ·  bid {quote['bid_price']} / ask {quote['ask_price']}")

const { StockAPIS } = require("stockapis");
const client = new StockAPIS({ apiKey: "your-api-key" });
 
// Options chain with Greeks and implied volatility
const chain = await client.robinhood.getOptionsChain({ symbol: "AAPL" });
console.log(chain.contracts[0]);
