Data Fields

What you get back

A representative slice of the fields pushed over the WebSocket stream and available in line movement history — full field-by-field detail is in the API Reference.

FieldTypeDescription
fixture_idstringStable match identifier shared across the stream and REST endpoints
marketstringMarket type — e.g. 1X2, spread, total, player_props
bookmakerstringSource bookmaker for this price, normalized to a shared bookmaker ID
pricenumberDecimal odds for the outcome at the time of the update
sequenceintegerMonotonic sequence number per channel, used to detect gaps on reconnect
updated_msintegerServer-side timestamp in milliseconds for the price or event update
event_typestringMatch event type — goal, card, substitution — pushed alongside price changes
statusstringMatch state — scheduled, live, suspended, finished — used to gate in-play pricing
i Sequence numbers matter. Every message carries a monotonic sequence number per channel — check it on reconnect and use the replay endpoint to backfill any gap before resuming live consumption.
Example Request

FAQs

Common questions

What is a trading desk sports data feed?

A trading desk sports data feed delivers live odds, line movement and match state at low latency, typically over a persistent streaming connection, so a trading or market-making system can react to price and market changes close to real time.

How is this different from the Sportsbooks & Trading solution?

Sportsbooks & Trading is built around pricing a book end-to-end, while this solution focuses specifically on the raw low-latency stream — line movement history, WebSocket delivery and dedicated infrastructure — for desks doing market-making, arbitrage or quantitative trading on top of sports odds.

What latency can I expect from the WebSocket stream?

Updates are timestamped in milliseconds and pushed over a persistent WebSocket connection rather than polling, so consumers see price and score changes as they're published rather than on a fixed interval delay.

Can I get historical line movement, not just live?

Yes. Line movement history is available alongside the live stream, so a strategy can be backtested against how odds actually moved in past matches before being deployed live.

Do you offer dedicated infrastructure for high-throughput trading?

Yes. Self-serve API keys work for development and testing, and dedicated infrastructure with enterprise SLAs is available for trading workloads that need guaranteed throughput and uptime.

Which markets and sports are available on the stream?

Core markets such as moneyline/1X2, spreads and totals stream across football, basketball, American football, tennis, cricket, baseball and more, with additional markets available for major leagues.
