Availability, licensing, instrument coverage and redistribution rights depend on the selected data sources and the customer deployment. The website does not imply exchange or vendor entitlement where none has been contracted.
REST API design
Where REST fits in a market-data stack
REST is well suited to snapshots, reference information, historical retrieval and operational queries. It is usually complementary to a streaming protocol rather than a substitute for every real-time workflow.
Historical access
Define intervals, pagination, time zones and data-retention boundaries so clients can request reproducible windows.
Rate policy
Document request limits and error responses. A client should be able to distinguish throttling, entitlement issues and invalid symbols.
Versioning
Keep breaking API changes behind a version boundary and publish migration notes before deprecating an older contract.
Production review checklist
✓ Source rights and permitted use confirmed
✓ Symbol model documented
✓ Failure and recovery behaviour tested
✓ Monitoring and ownership defined
FAQ
Questions about REST Market Data API
What is a broker market data price feed?
A production broker price feed is a controlled stream of market prices delivered to trading and downstream systems, normally with source management, normalization, monitoring and failover.
Can PriceFeed.xyz connect to MT4 and MT5?
The solution is designed around MT4, MT5 and proprietary trading stacks. The exact gateway, plugin or bridge method depends on the broker environment and selected data sources.
Which delivery protocols are supported?
The architecture supports FIX market data, streaming WebSocket and REST workflows, with broker-specific integration paths for MetaTrader and proprietary platforms.
Can a broker use its own data sources?
Yes. Broker-approved institutional, exchange, reference or proprietary sources can be normalized and routed through the pricing layer subject to licensing and technical compatibility.
