How to retrieve web prices and volume using streaming API

[broomyster]

Hi,

Apologies in advance if I'm covering old ground. I have searched the forums, but it's possible I'm not searching for the right thing.

Basically, I'm new to the BF API, however, I've covered all the basics pretty easily. I've retrieved market info, runners, etc., that I need. I can successfully subscribe to market streams. All good so far.

What I'm trying to do is to replicate what I see on the web page (notwithstanding the dev API stream is delayed). From reading the API docs, I believe what the BF site presents is virtual bet info => EX_BEST_OFFERS_DISP in market data filters. What I'm after, though, is the virtual price and the *unmatched* bet volume (liquidity) - where the size metric in the level/price/size tuple is matched bets.

Is this available in the market stream or order stream? Am I completely missing something in the docs? Worse - have I completely misunderstood what I'm seeing?

Any help very much appreciated - even if it's just to point me at a message thread.

Many thanks.

Hi broomyster

To retrieve the information required you need to subscribe to both EX_BEST_OFFERS_DISP and EX_TRADED. The Market Stream API contains details of all market-related unmatched orders (price, size) and traded volume (price, size).

The Order Stream contains details of any changes to your own unmatched/matched orders.

Kind Regards

Neil
