Aggregating Orderbook Depth to Create Liquidity Metrics
A liquid order book (the collection of outstanding bids and asks for a market) is a necessary component of a mature financial asset. The ability to quickly enter and exit large positions with a small degree of price impact, or slippage, is a desirable feature for institutional market participants. Coin Metrics has been collecting order book snapshots for major crypto assets since 2019, and recently launched new liquidity metrics as part of our Market Data Feed offering to further enhance institutions’ view of the crypto markets. In this demo, we explore how these metrics can be used to quantify and aggregate order book depth across some of the most actively-traded BTC markets.
Resources
This notebook demonstrates basic functionality offered by the Coin Metrics Python API Client and Market Data Feed.
Coin Metrics offers a vast assortment of data for hundreds of cryptoassets. The Python API Client allows for easy access to this data using Python without needing to create your own wrappers using requests
and other such libraries.
