Huobi Data Parser & API
Huobi — now branded HTX — is a long-running global cryptocurrency exchange ranking among the top venues by spot volume, and StockAPIS extracts its real-time market data — spot and futures prices, order books, OHLCV candles, trade history and 24h ticker stats across 600+ trading pairs — through a single REST API. Huobi offers an official public API, and StockAPIS normalizes it to the same schema you use for every other exchange, so you query Huobi, Binance and Coinbase the same way without maintaining separate integrations.
