[0] bid

string

Bid price.

[1] ask

string

Ask price.

[2] timestamp

string

Time of the current top-of-book quote, in seconds since epoch. This reflects the creation time of the best bid/ask order(s) currently resting at the top of book, not the time the message was generated. Because of this, the value is not monotonic: when the top of book changes to an order that was already resting in the book (for example after a trade), this timestamp may move backwards relative to the previous message. This is expected and does not indicate stale or dropped data.

[3] bid_volume

string

Bid Volume.

[4] ask_volume

string

Ask Volume.

[2] pair

string

Example: "BTC/USD"The symbol of the currency pair.
