Quickstart

Authentication

To use Opinion Websocket, establish a wss connection to wss://ws.opinion.trade with your apikey as query parameters:

wss://ws.opinion.trade?apikey={API_KEY}

Maintain connection

To maintain connection, send a HEARTBEAT message (e.g. every 30 seconds) to keep it open.

{"action":"HEARTBEAT"}

Subscribe

To subscribe a channel, send a SUBSCRIBE message, for example:

For Binary market:
{"action":"SUBSCRIBE","channel":"{CHANNEL}","marketId":{MARKET_ID}}
For Categorical market:
{"action":"SUBSCRIBE","channel":"{CHANNEL}","rootMarketId":{ROOT_MARKET_ID}}

The exact requied fields (e.g. marketId or rootMarketId) depend on the channel to be subscribed.

To unsubscribe a channel, send an UNSUBSCRIBE message with the same parameters:

For Binary market:
{"action":"UNSUBSCRIBE","channel":"{CHANNEL}","marketId":{MARKET_ID}}
For Categorical market:
{"action":"UNSUBSCRIBE","channel":"{CHANNEL}","rootMarketId":{ROOT_MARKET_ID}}
