Deliver real-time market data for event-based trading platforms
Support prediction market applications with live market prices, historical trading activity, liquidity data, and market analytics across event-based contracts.
Prediction markets allow people to trade contracts based on the outcome of future events, such as elections, sporting events, economic indicators, or technology launches.
Instead of buying traditional assets, participants trade probabilities that change as new information becomes available. Platforms depend on accurate and timely market data to display prices, monitor trading activity, and help users understand how markets evolve.
Prediction markets move quickly as news breaks and probabilities change.
Users expect live prices, current order books, historical charts, and transparent market activity throughout the trading experience. As more markets, events, and participants are added, delivering fast and consistent market information across the platform becomes increasingly demanding.
Stream live trades, quotes, order books, and market activity so users always see the latest probabilities and trading conditions.
Use historical trades, quotes, OHLCV, and market history to build probability charts, market timelines, and event analysis that explain how sentiment evolved.
Analyze real-time order books to help users understand available liquidity, market depth, and trading conditions before placing orders.
Combine live and historical market data to create leaderboards, market movers, volume rankings, trending events, and trading dashboards.
Support additional prediction markets through one standardized market data platform instead of integrating separate data sources for every provider.
