Timeframes
The candle intervals the API accepts, from one minute to one week, plus raw ticks. How far back each one goes depends on your plan: see the usage limits.
#1m
One candle per minute. The finest aggregated view, for intraday strategies and execution.
#5m
Five minutes. Short-term trading without the noise of the minute.
#15m
A quarter of an hour. A common base for intraday signals.
#30m
Half an hour, between intraday and the hourly view. Not served on the intraday macro candles.
#1h
One hour. The usual timeframe for dashboards and swing signals.
#4h
Four hours. Reads the trend of a trading session.
#1d
One day. Backtests, daily reporting and long trends.
#1w
One week. Served on the technical indicators only; the other bucketed routes stop at the day.
#ticks
No timeframe: each trade one by one, spot and futures, up to ten thousand per call. The raw material the candles are built from.
