We're building the most comprehensive crypto data API we can, and it's still growing — there's always a coin, a field or an endpoint we haven't got to yet.
Please tell us about any data you think Crypto Data API should nail but doesn't. We're data nerds who love to geek out about market data, trading bots, AI agents, or how to make your trading stack work in general. Prefer a form? Send feedback.
12 macro & cross-asset indicators, from the AlgoBrain wiki. Rates, dollar, commodities and economic data — the backdrop crypto trades against. Each lists what it measures, the strategies that use it, the Crypto Data API endpoints that serve it or its inputs, and a prompt for an AI agent to compute it. All of them are in the API: GET /api/v1/indicators/catalog?group=macro-cross-asset.
