Trade Quote (v3)

StandardPro

REQUIRED

The v3 Theta Terminal must be running to access data.

  • Returns every trade reported by OPRA paired with the last NBBO quote reported by OPRA at the time of trade.
  • A quote is matched with a trade if its timestamp <= the trade timestamp.
  • To match trades with quotes timestamps that are < the trade timestamp, specify the exclusiveparameter to true. After thorough testing, we have determined that using exclusive=true might yield better results for various applications.
  • Multi-day requests are limited to 1 month of data, and must specify an expiration.
