API Docs

# Introduction

Our public API provides programmatic access to TradingDifferent data, allowing traders to perform custom analysis and program their own strategies.

Why use an API?

If you need to access data automatically, this API allows you to:

  • Create trading bots.
  • Set up custom alerts.
  • Integrate data into your own dashboard or analytics tool.
  • Analyze trends and develop automated strategies.

# Getting started

1. Generate your API key from the API Keys dashboard. Keep it secret — you send it on every request as an Authorization: Bearer tdapi_... header.

2. Everything about how to use the API — authentication, base URL, available endpoints, request and response formats, rate limits and full examples — lives in our detailed documentation:

# Build it with an AI assistant

The fastest way to build with our API is to hand the documentation link to an AI coding assistant (Claude, Codex, Gemini, Cursor, etc.) and describe what you want. It will read the docs and write the integration for you.

Paste something like this into your assistant, replacing the goal with whatever you need:

Here is the documentation for the TradingDifferent API: https://api.tradingdifferent.com/v1/docs
My API key is tdapi_xxxxxxxxx. Help me build the following:
<describe what you want — a bot, an alert, a dashboard, a backtest…>

Some example prompts to get you started:

Using the API at https://api.tradingdifferent.com/v1/docs, build a small bot that sends me a Telegram message when a large liquidation pool forms close to price.

Tip: give the assistant your API key (or set it as an environment variable) so the generated code can authenticate. Never commit your key to a public repository.

# Proper use of the API

Access to our API is intended solely for authorized purposes and within the scope of the services provided by Trading Different. It is strictly prohibited to:

  • Extract data in a massive or automated manner without explicit authorization.
  • Redistribute, sell or sublicense access to the API or the data obtained from it.
  • Take any action that may compromise the integrity, performance or security of the API or associated systems.
  • Use the API in a way that may negatively affect the availability of the service for other users.

We reserve the right to revoke or suspend access to the API without notice if we detect any activity that we consider to be abuse, misuse, or violation of these terms.

Failure to comply with these conditions may result in immediate termination of access to the API, in addition to any other measures we deem necessary, including appropriate legal action.
