Finage Data Parser & API

Finage is a UK-based multi-asset market-data vendor that delivers real-time and historical stock, forex, crypto, index and commodity data via an official REST and WebSocket API, and StockAPIS extracts that data — live quotes, OHLC candles, technical indicators and economic data — through a single unified REST API. Finage offers a fully documented official API, and StockAPIS normalizes its responses to the same schema you use for every other source, so you query Finage, Polygon and Twelve Data the same way without maintaining separate integrations.

Platform Overview

Market Position

• An established global market-data provider serving traders, fintechs and apps
• Multi-asset coverage spanning US and EU equities, forex, crypto, indices and commodities
• Official REST + WebSocket API with real-time streaming and deep historical archives
• Competes alongside Polygon, Twelve Data and Finnhub in the data-API category

Finage positions itself as an all-in-one market-data backend so that fintech teams do not have to stitch together a separate vendor for each asset class. Because it exposes both a REST API for snapshot and historical queries and a WebSocket feed for streaming updates, the same provider can drive a slow analytics dashboard and a low-latency trading screen. StockAPIS sits in front of Finage and translates its native response format into the unified StockAPIS schema, which means you can swap Finage in or out, or fan a request out across Finage and other providers, without rewriting any client code.

Data Coverage

StockAPIS exposes the full Finage data surface:

• Stock data — real-time prices, bid/ask, volume, market cap and fundamentals for US & EU equities and ETFs
• Forex data — live exchange rates and cross rates across 1,000+ currency pairs
• Crypto data — real-time prices and market data for major digital assets
• Commodities & indices — gold, silver, oil, natural gas and major market indices
• OHLC / historical — candlestick aggregates across intervals for backtesting and charting
• Technical indicators & economic data — moving averages, RSI, MACD plus macro indicators

Quick Start

import stockapis
 
client = stockapis.Client(api_key="your-api-key")
 
# Real-time stock quote from Finage
aapl = client.finage.get_stock_data(symbol="AAPL", interval="1min")
print(f"Apple: ${aapl['price']}  ·  {aapl['changePercent']}%")

const { StockAPIS } = require("stockapis");
const client = new StockAPIS({ apiKey: "your-api-key" });
 
// Live forex rate from Finage
const fx = await client.finage.getForexRate({ from: "USD", to: "EUR" });
console.log(`USD/EUR: ${fx.price}`);

Use Cases

• Trading apps & dashboards — power real-time stock, forex and crypto tickers from one feed
• Quant research & backtesting — pull OHLC history and indicators for strategy development
• Multi-asset aggregation — combine equities, forex, crypto and commodities on one schema
• Portfolio & risk monitoring — real-time marks for valuation, P&L and exposure tracking

Because StockAPIS normalizes Finage into a common schema, a single integration covers data sourcing, failover and rate-limit handling. Teams typically use Finage for broad multi-asset coverage and then blend in specialist providers like Polygon for deep US equity tick data or Twelve Data for indicators, all behind the same StockAPIS client. This keeps vendor migration cheap: changing data providers becomes a configuration change rather than a rewrite, and you can A/B two sources against each other to compare latency, coverage and pricing before committing.
