Futures Questions
Coinranking futures API returns perpetual futures data at three levels: coins with futures markets (price, 24-hour volume, open interest, funding rate and their changes), individual futures markets (mark price, index price, funding rate and interval, open interest, volume) and futures exchanges (volume, open interest, market share). Lists are ranked by open interest by default. See the futures docs.
Yes. Every Coinranking futures coin and futures market carries a fundingRate, and a market also carries fundingIntervalHours, typically 8. The futures coins list can be ordered by funding rate in either direction, which turns a funding-rate screener into one request. A market-wide average funding rate is in data.stats.fundingRate.
Open interest on Coinranking futures API is returned as the current value with a percentage change per coin, market and exchange, and market-wide totals. For a price series on a coin's futures, the futures coin OHLCV endpoint returns minute, hour or day candles.
Coinranking futures API covers perpetual futures on the centralized exchanges Coinranking tracks futures for; GET /futures/exchanges returns the current list with each exchange's volume, open interest, market share, number of markets and coins, and data.stats.total gives the count. Per-exchange coins and markets are one call further.
All ten Coinranking futures endpoints are Growth, at $99 a month with a 30-day free trial, alongside spot OHLCV, indicators, exchange and DEX data. Every value converts with referenceCurrencyUuid, and lists paginate with cursors like the rest of the API.
