Buda.com's API

Great! You found the API documentation for Buda.com. If you are not a software developer you might be a little lost 😀. We offer REST and Websocket APIs to suit your needs.

REST API

Introduction

import requests # install requests with `pip install requests`

url = 'https://www.buda.com/api/v2/markets/eth-btc/ticker'
response = requests.get(url)
print(response.json())

Like many other cryptocurrency exchanges, Buda.com's API has public endpoints and private endpoints:

Public endpoints don't require authentication to use, making them public information. In fact, you can use them directly from your browser by adding .json to the end of the path. For example, try the following URL: https://www.buda.com/api/v2/markets/eth-btc/ticker.json
Private endpoints require authentication, so in order to use them, you need to obtain both an API-KEY and an API-SECRET for your account. For this step, you need to log in to buda.com and go to the Configuración section, where you will find the API Keys tab and an option to create new API-KEYS with various levels of permission and expiry dates.

Our API's URLs usually have this format

https://www.buda.com/api/[version]/[path].[format]

Where currently:

Parameter	Value
`version`	v2
`format`	json

A given market separates the buys and sells by currency. In each market, the base_currency is bought or sold, and the quote_currency is used to pay for these trades. We use these two currencies to identify each market.

For example, the market in which bitcoins (BTC) are traded against dollars (USDC) is: btc-usdc.

Get a simulated quote for an order in a given market using the current order book.

Quote types

This endpoint can simulate many different types of quotes.

For this, you can choose a specific market for the simulation, where our market IDs are in the <base_currency>-<quote_currency> format (we will use the eth-btc market as an example). You can simulate what a buy or sell order would be for a certian amount of the base_currency or quote_currency. (If you want more detail about what is a buy or sell order you con go check My Orders)

For the simulation, you need to choose one of the following types and send it as the type payload parameter.

Quote type	Description
`bid_given_size` or `bid_given_earned_base`	Simulates a buy order to receive a certain `amount` of `base_currency` (for example: How much `btc` is requiered to obtain a certain `amount` of `eth`?)
`bid_given_value` or `bid_given_spent_quote`	Simulates a buy order to spend a certain `amount` of `quote_currency` (for example: How much `eth` will I receive if I buy a certain `amount` of `btc`?)
`ask_given_size` or `ask_given_spent_base`	Simulates a sell order to spend a certain `amount` of `base_currency` (for example: How much `btc` would I receive if I sell a certain `amount` of `eth`?)
`ask_given_value` or `ask_given_earned_quote`	Simulates a sell order to receive a certain `amount` of `quote_currency` (for example: How much `eth` is requiered to obtain a certain `amount` of `btc`?)

HTTP Request

POST '/markets/<market_id>/quotations

Path Parameters

Parameter	Description
`market_id`	The market ID (for example: `btc-clp`, `eth-btc`, etc). You can obtain a complete list of all markets by calling the Markets endpoint.

Request Payload

Key	Required	Description
`type`	Yes	Quote type being requested (see previous table)
`amount`	Yes	Amount to simulate quote (represents `base_currency` or `quote_currency`) depending on the `type` parameter
`limit`	No	Price requested for the currency in which the `amount` parameter is expressed in

Response Details

Key	Type	Description
`amount`	[amount, currency]	The `amount` value sent in the payload.
`base_balance_change`	[amount, currency]	How much your `base_currency` balance would change after fees. This can be either positive or negative.
`base_exchanged`	[amount, currency]	Total `base_currency` amount that would be traded. This is always positive.
`fee`	[amount, currency]	Fee charged for trade.
`incomplete`	[boolean]	Indicates whether or not your simulated order would be completely filled given current market conditions (order book and your current balance).
`limit`	[amount, currency]	The `limit` value sent in the payload.
`order_amount`	[amount, currency]	The same value as `base_exchanged`.
`quote_balance_change`	[amount, currency]	How much your `quote_currency` balance would change after fees. This can be either positive or negative.
`quote_exchanged`	[amount, currency]	Total `quote_currency` amount that would be traded. This is always positive.
`type`	[string]	Quote type requested.

About fee calculations (fee)

Keep in mind that the fee charged for each trade is dependant on the monthly volume traded by each user.
- If you request this endpoint without authentication then the fee displayed will corresponf to the highest fee for that market.
- If you would like to simulate orders considering your account's corresponding fee then make the request authenticated.
Depending on the limit payload value sent it can occur that part of the order would be executed immediately as a market order, and the rest would be placed as a limit order.
- In the case part of the simulated order is executed immediately as a market order, the corresponding fee would be all the market order fee for the amount immediately executed + the corresponding fee for the remaining limit order that would be placed.

Deposit/Withdrawal Fees

import requests

currency = 'btc'
transaction_type = 'withdrawal'
url = f'https://www.buda.com/api/v2/currencies/{currency}/fees/{transaction_type}'
response = requests.get(url)

    "percent": 0,
    "base": ["0.00000015", "BTC"]
  }
}

Provides all the related fees to the deposit or withdrawal of a given currency.

Keep in mind:

These costs do not come from Buda, they are charged by the network of the given currency to execute a transaction. For example, the fee required to have a Bitcoin transaction included in the following 3 blocks.
Some fiat currencies may incur a deposit/withdrawal fee.
In case of making a deposit, it is your responsibility to include the necessary transaction fee for it to be confirmed in the corresponding network.

HTTP Request

GET /currencies/<currency>/fees/<transaction_type>

Path Parameters

Parameter	Description
`currency`	Acronym of the currency being requested
`transaction_type`	Transaction type. It can be either `deposit` or `withdrawal`

`percent`	[number]	Variable cost per transaction (percantage)
`base`	[amount, currency]	Fixed cost per transaction

Private Endpoints

Private endpoints access a user's private information, place/cancel orders, and deposit/withdraw funds.

In order to access these endpoints, it is necessary to authenticate the user. This is done by using an API-KEY and a signature derived from an API-SECRET.

Authentication

import base64
import hmac
import time
import requests.auth

class BudaHMACAuth(requests.auth.AuthBase):
    """Appends the HMAC Buda authentication to the Request object"""

    def __init__(self, api_key: str, secret: str):
        self.api_key = api_key
        self.secret = secret

    def get_nonce(self) -> str:
        # 1. Generate nonce (timestamp in microseconds)
        return str(int(time.time() * 1e6))

    def sign(self, r, nonce: str) -> str:
        # 2. Prepare string for signing
        components = [r.method, r.path_url]
        if r.body:
            encoded_body = base64.b64encode(r.body).decode()
            components.append(encoded_body)
        components.append(nonce)
        msg = ' '.join(components)
        # 3. Get the signature
        h = hmac.new(key=self.secret.encode(),
                        msg=msg.encode(),
                        digestmod='sha384')
        signature = h.hexdigest()
        return signature

    def __call__(self, r):
        nonce = self.get_nonce()
        signature = self.sign(r, nonce)
        # 4. Append API-KEY, nonce and signature to request header
        r.headers['X-SBTC-APIKEY'] = self.api_key
        r.headers['X-SBTC-NONCE'] = nonce
        r.headers['X-SBTC-SIGNATURE'] = signature
        return r

# To authenticate an API call the `auth` parameter must be included in the request
request = requests.post(url, auth=BudaHMACAuth(api_key, secret))

We did our best to make a secure but simple authentication process. I think it ended up being more secure than simple, but don't worry, there are many great examples.

The first step is to generate an API-KEY for the authenticated API calls. This can be done in "Mi cuenta", where you can generate an API-KEY and an API-SECRET.

Once you have your API-KEY you can use it to request private endpoints. Buda.com expects all private calls to be signed following these steps:

1. Generate a nonce

The nonce is an integer that must be greater than the most recently used nonce. This protects you from a "Man in the middle" attack. The recommended way to do this is by using timestamps.

2. Prepare string for signing

The string content is as follows:

{GET|POST|PUT} {path} {base64_encoded_body} {nonce}

Where:

path: Corresponds to the complete request path, including the query string without the host. For example: /api/v1/orders?open=true
base64_encoded_body: Corresponds to the request body with Base64 encoding. This value can be empty if the request doesn't have a body (like a GET request).
nonce: this is the number we explained before.
Every space in the string must be taken into account.

For example:

GET /api/v1/orders?open=true 423874932432

3. Get the signature

The signature is an authentication message based on an HMAC hash, which is generated using the SHA-384 hash function on the API-SECRET and string generated on the previous step 😱. This string must be encoded in hexadecimal format.

Don't worry, most programming languages have an HMAC generator function included in standard libraries. An example can be seen over to your right -->.

4. Append API-KEY, nonce and signature to request header

For example:

Header	Value
`X-SBTC-APIKEY`	0faea2f360a508a6d105a3bb60247af0
`X-SBTC-NONCE`	145511231131231
`X-SBTC-SIGNATURE`	5c873eddb1117b930b1caa058ada3f7...

    "total_count": 50,
    "current_page": 1
  }
}

Some responses may include a lot of data, so in order to prevent our server from being overworked and delaying the response, we use pagination to separate the response into smaller segments.

If an endpoint uses pagination, then it will accept the following query parameters:

Query Parameters

Parameter	Default	Description
`per`	20	Elements per page [min: 1, max: 300]
`page`	1	The number of pages to receive. The first page received is `1`

Response Details (JSON)

Estos endpoints siempre devolverán, además de los elementos solicitados, un objeto meta dentro de la respuesta, cuya estructura es la siguiente:

These endpoint's response will additionally include a meta object with the following format:

Key	Type	Description
`total_pages`	[int]	Total page count that represents the complete response
`total_count`	[int]	Total element count the represents the complete response
`current_page`	[int]	Page number that represents the data in the current response

If you want to receive the complete data set through pagination set the page size at the max value (300) and iterate through all pages starting at 1 and ending at total_pages.

An order is a fundamental part of any exchange. It consists of either a sell or buy offer (type) for a ciertain amount of a market's base_currency (usually cypto) at a limit or market price.

Market orders

If the order type (price_type) is market, the order will be immediatly executed at the best possible price, taking account the order amount, with the current order book. These orders are traded against the current limit orders.

Limit orders

If the order type (price_type) is limit, an order is created at the desired price, which will execute only if it can trade against an opposing market order.

For Bid orders, limit price is the highest price you are willing to buy at.
For Ask orders, limit price is the lowest price you are willing to sell at.

These orders are programed to execute immediately after their creation, but this process occurs asynchronously since each order enters a FIFO queue. A limit order can be partially filled, since an opposing market order may not cover it entirely.

If you need to consult for various states then you can set the state request payload parameter like this: state=state1,state2,state3.

Tipos de Órdenes Limit

Good-Till-Canceled (gtc): A limit order that will remain open until it is completely filled or canceled.

Immediate-Or-Cancel (ioc): Must be executed immediately. Any portion of an IOC order that cannot be filled immediately will be canceled.

Fill-Or-Kill (fok): Must be executed immediately. If the FOK order is not completely filled immediately, the entire order will be canceled.

Post Only (post_only): Must be executed as a Limit/Maker order. If any portion of the order would be filled as a Market/Taker, then the complete order is canceled.

Good-Till-Date (gtd): A limit order that will remain active until it is filled or the expiration date is reached.

Stop Orders

Stop orders are designed to be executed automatically when the market price reaches the set trigger price (Stop Price). There are two main types: Stop Market and Stop Limit.

Stop Market: This order becomes a market order when the price reaches the trigger price. Execution is carried out at the best available price at that moment.
Stop Limit: In addition to the trigger price, a limit price is set. The order is activated upon reaching the trigger price and is executed as a limit order at the limit price or better.

Then, you must choose whether this order will be a Stop Loss or Take Profit. This will depend on the Type and Stop Price you choose in relation to the last market price.

For example, if you choose a Stop Loss of Bid type, with a Stop Price higher than the Last Price, then the order will remain waiting to be activated with a price change. On the other hand, if the price is lower than the Last Price, it will be activated immediately, as the condition that the Last Price be higher than the Stop Price is met.

In the latter case, if you want the order to remain waiting to be activated by a price drop, this order must be a Take Profit.

If you want the stop order to remain waiting for the Stop Price, without being activated immediately, you can use this reference table:

Type	Stop Type	Stop Price
`bid`	`Stop Loss`	> `Last Price`
`ask`	`Stop Loss`	< `Last Price`
`bid`	`Take Profit`	< `Last Price`
`ask`	`Take Profit`	> `Last Price`

Rate Limits

We take some precautions to protect ourselves from DoS attacks or abuse of our API. This is done to ensure that our service is stable for all our users.

If your request reaches our limit, you will receive a response with the 429 code, and you must wait before trying again.

These limits are calculated in 1 minute and 1 second intervals. For 1 second intervals, as long as you do less than 20 requests/second you should not trigger our limit.

General

Anonymous (unauthenticated) calls will be limited by IP address at a rate of 120 requests/minute. Authenticated calls will be limited by api key at a rate of 375 requests/minute.

Trading (placing and canceling orders)

The endpoints used to create and cancel orders are limited by market. This limit is dependant on your account tier. You can check out more details here.

Tier	30 day volume	Rate Limit
< 4	< $100 000	`100 requests/minute`
>= 4	>= $100 000	`250 requests/minute`

Errors

We do our best to adhere to the HTTP error conventions. If an error occurs, our API sends a JSON object containing more details.

{
  "code": "forbidden",
  "message": "You dont have access to this resource"
}

Here is a more detailed explanation of HTTP errors you may encounter while using our API:

HTTP Code	Explanation
400	Bad Request -- The request has an incorrect syntaxis. If you are making a `POST` request, be sure you are sending a JSON object in the `body`, and using the `Content-Type: application/json` header.
401	Unauthorized -- Your `API Key` has expired or is not authenticating in the correct format.
403	Forbidden -- The request is valid, but you don't have the required permission for this action.
404	Not Found -- Resource not found. Checck URL you are requesting.
405	Method Not Allowed -- The method received in the request-line is incorrect (for example: using `GET` instead of `POST`).
406	Not Acceptable -- You have requested an unsupported format. Check that your header's `Accept` paramter is requesting JSON format (`Accept: application/json`).
410	Gone -- The resource being requested is no longer available.
422	Unprocessable entity -- You have sent information in an unsupported format. Check that the object you are sending as `body` in the `POST` request is in line with the documentation. (for example: Most of the strings that you must send are case-sensitive).
429	Too Many Requests -- You have surpassed our Rate Limits
500	Internal Server Error -- There has been a problem with our server and are doing our best to fix it 🔥. Please try again later.
503	Service Unavailable -- We are temporarily out of service due to maintenance. Please try again later.

Websockets API

Introduction

import websocket

def on_message(ws, message):
    print(message)

def on_open(ws):
    print('web-socket connected.')

def channels():
    pubsub_key = "pubsub_key"
    chs = [
        "book%40btcclp",
        "book%40ethclp",
        "trades%40btcclp",
        f"balances%40{pubsub_key}",
        f"orders%40{pubsub_key}"
    ]
    return ",".join(chs)



if __name__ == "__main__":
    SOCKET = f"wss://realtime.buda.com/sub?channel={channels()}"
    ws = websocket.WebSocketApp(SOCKET, on_message = on_message)
    ws.on_open = on_open
    ws.run_forever(ping_interval=10)

{
 ev: 'book-sync',
 ts: '123123123.123123',
 mk: 'BTC-CLP',
 ...
}

WebSockets allow you to open channels between client and server, so that you can stream data in real-time. With this API you can communicate with our server and receive responses based on events, instead of having to constantly query.

We currently use Nchan for this real-time communication. You can find more information on how Nchan works with WebSockets at https://nchan.io/#subscriber-endpoints.

To access the authenticated WebSockets, you will need your pubsub_key, which can be found using the account information endpoint.

Our WebSocket's URLs usually have this format:

wss://realtime.buda.com/sub?channel=[channel]

For cases where authentication is required, they have the following format:

wss://realtime.buda.com/sub?channel=[channel]@[pubsub_key]

For cases where you want to subscribe to multiple channles, they have the following format:

wss://realtime.buda.com/sub?channel=[channel1,channel2,channel3@pubsub_key]

Where:

Path Parameters

Parameter	Value
`channel`	Channel to be used
`pubsub-key`	Account's PubSub key, which can be found in account information.

Event Details

Key	Description
`ev`	Event name
`ts`	Unix timestamp (`seconds.nanoseconds`)
`mk`	Corresponding market id (for example: `ETH-BTC`, `BTC-CLP`, etc)

Remember to use %40 instead of @ when calling a channel if you are not encoding the url.
