Order Book L2 Metrics Expansion

We’ve greatly expanded our Order Book L2 metrics offering in the past few months. This advanced tool for users looking for accurate, minute-by-minute market metrics derived from order book snapshots is now available across 25 spot exchanges, as well as 10 futures and 2 options venues.

What This Means for You: The addition of these derivatives markets offers a world of opportunities for research and analysis. On one hand, users can now explore the often vast liquidity of perpetual futures order books, comparing price slippage with their spot equivalents. On the other hand, examining imbalances or key levels in options order books can reveal insights into potential future sentiment for their underlying assets.

Constructing Volatility Surfaces with InvestDEFY

Last month we collaborated with InvestDEFY to develop a comprehensive approach for constructing a volatility surface, a critical tool for understanding market expectations of future volatility across different option strikes, deltas, and expiration times.

This builds upon our existing partnership with InvestDEFY, leveraging our robust, standardised derivatives exchange data to produce their industry-leading analytics and metrics. This collaboration marks a significant step forward in our joint mission to deliver superior and reliable digital asset data solutions.

A volatility surface provides a three-dimensional view of implied volatility (IV) changes, allowing you to more effectively price options and enhance trading strategies.

Constructing this surface involves selecting appropriate models, ensuring data integrity, applying reasonable filters, and constantly updating to incorporate the latest market conditions. This process demands a meticulous mix of data analysis, model selection, and market comprehension.

Bridged to New Layer 2 Ecosystems:

Following the successful rollout of our core on-chain and DEX offerings across Ethereum, Bitcoin, Base and Binance Smart Chain, we are now expanding to the growing layer 2 ecosystems: Arbitrum, Polygon, and Optimism.

Our goal is to increase our pricing coverage from the native DEX trading on these chains and combine it with instrument metadata, mapping, and index aggregation that tie all our products together -  providing the most complete and standardised experience for our users.

Enhanced Spot Exchange Integrations:

Since we began collecting data 10 years ago, we have continuously improved, refined, and expanded our spot exchange integrations. Recent improvements include:

  • Refined Trade Quarantine Process: Recent improvements to our trade quarantine process ensures any suspicious trades are thoroughly checked before being included.

  • Improved Historical Data Backfill:  Our ability to backfill historical data has also improved, enabling users access to full history since inception for all major exchanges across all instruments. Looking for specific historical exchange data?  Please get in touch.

  • Architectural Upgrades: Recent architectural changes allow our integrations to handle even greater spikes in volumes and trade counts— regularly processing over 700,000 incoming messages per second with headroom for more.

Stay tuned for more in-depth information on the ins and outs of our exchange integrations and their evolution.
