Getting Started

Quickstart

From zero to streaming cross-exchange data in 5 minutes.

Your first call

Every data query goes through GET /v1/points. Authenticate with your API key in the X-Kiyotaka-Key header. Here's BTC candles from Binance Futures:

curl "https://api.kiyotaka.ai/v1/points
    ?type=TRADE_SIDE_AGNOSTIC_AGG
    &exchange=BINANCE_FUTURES
    &rawSymbol=BTCUSDT
    &interval=HOUR
    &from=1774800000
    &period=3600" \
  -H "X-Kiyotaka-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Same endpoint, same shape, for every data type. Change type and you get funding rates, liquidations, orderbook heatmaps, or volume profiles instead of candles.

Cross-exchange volume aggregation

This is where it gets interesting. Sum BTC volume across Binance, Bybit, and OKX in a single call -- USD-normalized so values are comparable:

curl "https://api.kiyotaka.ai/v1/points
    ?type=TRADE_SIDE_AGNOSTIC_AGG
    &exchange=BINANCE_FUTURES
    &exchange=BYBIT
    &exchange=OKEX_SWAP
    &coin=BTC
    &interval=HOUR
    &from=1774800000
    &period=86400
    &transform.groupBy.type=GROUP_BY_TYPE_SUM
    &transform.normalize.quote=USD" \
  -H "X-Kiyotaka-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

One response, one schema. No stitching together 3 different exchange APIs with 3 different symbol formats.

Orderbook heatmap

Pull a 4K-resolution orderbook heatmap -- 1,000 price levels of bid/ask depth, updated every minute:

curl "https://api.kiyotaka.ai/v1/points
    ?type=BLOCK_BOOK_SNAPSHOT_AGG
    &exchange=BINANCE_FUTURES
    &rawSymbol=BTCUSDT
    &interval=MINUTE
    &period=1140
    &blockSize=5
    &maxDepth=1000
    &sortDirection=SORT_DIRECTION_DESC" \
  -H "X-Kiyotaka-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Each snapshot returns alternating [price, volume] pairs for bids and asks. Feed it directly into a heatmap renderer.

Real-time trade stream

Open a WebSocket and stream every BTC trade on Binance Futures as it happens:

WebSocket
// 1. Connect
wss://ap-sin3.ws.api.kiyotaka.ai/nonbook/ws?encoding=json


// 2. Authenticate
{ "method": "public/authenticate", "params": { "token": "YOUR_API_KEY" } }


// 3. Subscribe
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 0,
  "method": "public/subscribe",
  "params": {
    "channels": [{
      "type": "TRADE",
      "exchange": "BINANCE_FUTURES",
      "symbol": "BTCUSDT",
      "category": "*"
    }],
    "compression": "brotli",
    "version": "v2"
  }
}


// 4. Receive
{
  "points": [{
    "series": { "type": "TRADE", "side": "BUY", "coin": "BTC", ... },
    "trade": { "price": 90003, "amount": 0.002, ... }
  }]
}

Liquidation heatmap

See where liquidations are clustered by price level -- useful for identifying stop-hunt zones and liquidation cascades:

curl "https://api.kiyotaka.ai/v1/points
    ?type=HYPERLIQUID_LIQUIDATION_AGG
    &coin=BTC
    &interval=HOUR
    &from=1774800000
    &period=3600
    &transform.normalize.quote=USD" \
  -H "X-Kiyotaka-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Returns alternating [price, liquidationVolume] pairs showing exactly where positions are getting blown up.

Market Profile (TPO)

A Kiyotaka exclusive -- no other crypto API offers Time Price Opportunity data. Get a full day's Market Profile with Point of Control and Value Area:

curl "https://api.kiyotaka.ai/v1/points
    ?type=TPO_AGG
    &exchange=BINANCE_FUTURES
    &rawSymbol=BTCUSDT
    &interval=DAY
    &from=1774800000
    &period=86400
    &tpoSession=TPO_SESSION_DAILY
    &tpoBlockSizeMinutes=30" \
  -H "X-Kiyotaka-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Each price level comes with time block IDs and buy/sell volume -- everything you need to render a classic Market Profile chart.

The pattern

Every example above uses the same endpoint (/v1/points), the same auth header, and the same response shape. The only thing that changes is the type parameter. That's the whole idea -- one API for everything.
