🔄 Accessing Recent Trades via Binance API
1. Spot and Margin Trades
For spot and margin markets, Binance offers the /api/v3/trades endpoint. This allows you to retrieve the latest trades for a specific trading pair. Here's how you can use it:
curl -X GET "https://api.binance.com/api/v3/trades?symbol=BTCUSDT&limit=5"
Replace BTCUSDT with your desired trading pair. The limit parameter specifies the number of recent trades to fetch, with a maximum of 1000.
2. Futures Trades
For USDⓈ-M Futures markets, use the /fapi/v1/trades endpoint:
curl -X GET "https://fapi.binance.com/fapi/v1/trades?symbol=BTCUSDT&limit=5"
Similarly, for Coin-M Futures markets, the endpoint is /dapi/v1/trades:
curl -X GET "https://dapi.binance.com/dapi/v1/trades?symbol=BTCUSD_PERP&limit=5"
These endpoints return recent market trades, providing details such as price, quantity, and trade time.
