Huobi

About Huobi

Huobi provides a REST and WebSocket API for its spot cryptocurrency trading platform. The API covers reference data (trading symbols, currencies, market status), market data (klines, tickers, order book depth, trade history), account management (balances, transfers, ledgers), wallet operations (deposits and withdrawals), trading (order placement, cancellation, batch orders, conditional orders), margin lending (cross and isolated), and sub-user account management. WebSocket channels are available for streaming market data and account/order updates.

The documentation includes authentication requirements, rate limits, request/response formats, and error codes for each endpoint group. It is intended for developers building applications that interact with Huobi's exchange, such as trading bots, portfolio trackers, or account management tools, and includes support for sub-account creation and permissions for platforms managing multiple users.
