HitBTC

Spot trading on HitBTC (API address https://api.hitbtc.com, v3 API), without HitBTC's perpetual contracts (_PERP): exchange.GetMarkets() and exchange.GetTickers() list only the spot pairs whose exchange status is working. It uses REST only, with no market-data or order push. Private endpoints use a HitBTC API key (Access Key and Secret Key).

Names and Configuration

exchange.GetName(): HitBTC (Spot).

Field	Required
Access Key	Yes
Secret Key	Yes

Trading Pairs and Contract Codes

Pair examples: BTC_USDT, ETH_BTC

Trading pairs are written BASE_QUOTE, matching the HitBTC native code BTCUSDT.

Function Support

No unsupported standard functions.

Served through a fallback:

• exchange.GetRecords: Native periods are 1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 4h, 1d, 1w, 1M; other periods are synthesized by the docker.

Notes

• The amount of a spot market buy order is in the base currency, not a quote-currency amount (orders are placed by HitBTC quantity).
• Limit orders support IOC, FOK and maker-only (postOnly).
• Order IDs use the HitBTC client_order_id (order queries, cancellation and amendment all address orders by it).
• exchange.ModifyOrder() can change the price and amount; a price or amount that is not positive is left unchanged. Amending gives the order a new client_order_id, so the new order ID is returned; use the new ID from then on.
• Conditional orders support take-profit and stop-loss (without an order price they execute at market once triggered), not OCO; exchange.ModifyConditionOrder() can change the trigger price, order price and amount (values that are not positive are left unchanged) and, like a normal amendment, returns the new order ID; conditional orders are canceled through the same endpoint as normal orders.
• exchange.GetHistoryOrders() queries by trading pair and returns finished orders only; without limit, at most 1000 orders are returned.
