StockAPIS for Market Researchers

StockAPIS gives market researchers one normalized feed across 80+ crypto exchanges, stock markets, data providers, and news sources — so cross-venue prices, OHLCV, order books, and sentiment land ready for analysis and reports.

Key Benefits

  • Comprehensive Coverage: One API across 80+ platforms — crypto exchanges, stock markets, brokers, data APIs, and news.
  • Historical Data: Years of tick, OHLCV, and order-book history for backtesting and longitudinal studies.
  • Cross-Venue Normalization: Unified symbols, timestamps (UTC), and schemas across Binance, Coinbase, NYSE, and Polygon.
  • Multi-Asset: Crypto, equities, ETFs, FX, and on-chain metrics in a single workflow.
  • Export Options: CSV, JSON, and Parquet for analysis in Excel, R, pandas, or notebooks.

Use Cases

Cross-Venue Price Analysis

Compare prices for the same asset across exchanges:

from stockapis import StockAPIS api = StockAPIS(api_key='your_api_key') def compare_venues(symbol, venues): results = [] for venue in venues: quote = api.platforms.get_quote(venue=venue, symbol=symbol) results.append({ 'venue': venue, 'price': quote.last, 'bid': quote.bid, 'ask': quote.ask, 'volume_24h': quote.volume_24h }) return results # Compare BTC across major crypto exchanges venues = ['binance', 'coinbase', 'kraken', 'okx'] spread = compare_venues('BTC-USD', venues) for v in spread: print(f"{v['venue']}: ${v['price']:,.2f} vol ${v['volume_24h']:,.0f}")

See the full list of crypto exchanges and the dedicated Binance integration.

Liquidity and Order-Book Studies

Measure depth and spreads for microstructure research:

def analyze_liquidity(venue, symbol): book = api.platforms.get_order_book(venue=venue, symbol=symbol, depth=50) best_bid = book.bids[0].price best_ask = book.asks[0].price spread = best_ask - best_bid mid = (best_bid + best_ask) / 2 bid_depth = sum(level.size for level in book.bids) ask_depth = sum(level.size for level in book.asks) print(f"Liquidity Analysis - {symbol} @ {venue}") print(f"Spread: {spread:.4f} ({spread / mid:.3%})") print(f"Bid Depth: {bid_depth:,.2f}") print(f"Ask Depth: {ask_depth:,.2f}") if spread / mid < 0.0005: print("Status: Deep / tight market") else: print("Status: Thin / wide market")

OHLCV Trend Forecasting

Pull historical candles for longitudinal trend work:

def analyze_price_trends(venue, symbol): candles = api.platforms.get_ohlcv( venue=venue, symbol=symbol, interval='1d', limit=365 ) first = candles[0].close last = candles[-1].close yoy_change = (last / first - 1) * 100 print(f"Trend Analysis - {symbol} @ {venue}") print(f"Current Close: ${last:,.2f}") print(f"1-Year Change: {yoy_change:+.1f}%") # Simple projection forecast = last * (1 + yoy_change / 100) print(f"12-Month Projection: ${forecast:,.0f}")

News and Sentiment Studies

Blend market data with financial news and social signals:

def sentiment_snapshot(symbol): news = api.platforms.get_news(symbol=symbol, sources=['bloomberg', 'reuters']) social = api.platforms.get_sentiment(symbol=symbol, sources=['stocktwits', 'reddit']) bullish = sum(1 for n in news if n.sentiment > 0) bearish = sum(1 for n in news if n.sentiment < 0) print(f"Sentiment Snapshot - {symbol}") print(f"News: {bullish} bullish / {bearish} bearish ({len(news)} items)") print(f"Social Score: {social.score:+.2f} Mentions: {social.mentions:,}")

Comparative Asset Studies

Rank a basket of assets across venues:

def rank_assets(symbols, venue='binance'): ranking = [] for symbol in symbols: candles = api.platforms.get_ohlcv( venue=venue, symbol=symbol, interval='1d', limit=30 ) change_30d = (candles[-1].close / candles[0].close - 1) * 100 ranking.append({'symbol': symbol, 'change_30d': change_30d}) ranking.sort(key=lambda x: x['change_30d'], reverse=True) print("Asset Rankings by 30-Day Return:") for i, a in enumerate(ranking, 1): print(f"{i}. {a['symbol']} - {a['change_30d']:+.1f}%")

Quick Start

from stockapis import StockAPIS api = StockAPIS(api_key='your_api_key') # Get a normalized quote quote = api.platforms.get_quote(venue='coinbase', symbol='ETH-USD') print(f"Last Price: ${quote.last:,.2f}") print(f"Bid/Ask: ${quote.bid:,.2f} / ${quote.ask:,.2f}") print(f"24h Volume: ${quote.volume_24h:,.0f}")
