The websocket exposes a collection of events that are triggered when certain data is received. When subscribing to an event you are able to pass either a standard function or an asyncio co-routine Here is a full list of available events:
|
||||
|
||||
- `all`: listen for all messages coming through
|
||||
- `connected:` called when a connection is made
|
||||
- `authenticated`: called when the websocket passes authentication
|
||||
- `message` (string): new incoming message from the websocket
|
||||
- `all` (array|json): listen for all messages coming through
|
||||
- `connected:` () called when a connection is made

- `authenticated` (): called when the websocket passes authentication
|
||||
- `notification` (array): incoming account notification
|
||||
- `error` (string): error from the websocket

|
||||
- `seed_candle` (candleArray): initial past candle to prime strategy
|
||||
- `seed_trade` (tradeArray): initial past trade to prime strategy
|
||||
- `funding_offer_snapshot`: opening funding offer balances
|
||||
- `funding_loan_snapshot`:opening funding loan balances
|
||||
- `funding_credit_snapshot`: opening funding credit balances
|
||||
- `balance_update` when the state of a balance is changed
|
||||
- `new_trade`: a new trade on the market has been executed
|
