Terms of Service and Privacy Policy

By using any API provided by dYdX Trading Inc., you agree to its Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the foregoing, then do not use any such API.

General

These docs describe the v3 API for the dYdX decentralized perpetual contracts exchange. The exchange runs on an L2 (layer-2) blockchain system, and operates independently of previous dYdX protocols and systems, including the v1 and v2 APIs.

Like the previous iteration of dYdX perpetuals, the exchange uses a centralized order book, but remains non-custodial, and settles trades and liquidations in a trustless manner.

Layer 2: ZK-Rollups

Trades are settled in an L2 (layer-2) system, which publishes ZK (zero-knowledge) proofs periodically to an Ethereum smart contract in order to prove that state transitions within L2 are valid. Funds must be deposited to the Ethereum smart contract before they can be used to trade on dYdX.

By settling trades on L2, the exchange is able to offer much higher trade throughput and lower minimum order sizes, compared with systems settling trades directly on Ethereum (i.e. L1). This is achieved while maintaining decentralization, and the exchange is fully non-custodial.

The L2 system was developed with, and is operated jointly with, Starkware. More information about the L2 design can be found in Starkware's documentation. (Note: Some of the details described there may be specific to Starkware's previous StarkEx system and may not apply to the dYdX system.)

Data Centers

Our data centers are located in the AWS AP-NORTHEAST-1 region (Tokyo).

Number Formats

All amounts and prices in the clients and API are represented in “human readable,” natural units. For example, an amount of 1.25 ETH is represented as 1.25, and a price of $31,000.50 per BTC is represented as 31000.5.

Base URLs

Base URLs for API endpoints are as follows:

Testnet

We have one testnet which is on Goerli. To use the testnet, use the above Staging URL for your endpoint. Also use a networkId of 5 (Goerli) instead of 1 (Mainnet).

The user interface for testnet can be found here.

The dYdX Goerli USDC token address is 0xF7a2fa2c2025fFe64427dd40Dc190d47ecC8B36e. Users can deposit via the Testnet website.

Rate-Limits

All rate-limits are subject to change.

Please make use of the WebSockets API if you need real-time data.

Rate Limit - API

Limits are enforced by IP Address for public endpoints, and by both IP Address and Account for private endpoints.

Each request consumes 1 point towards the rate limit. POST v3/orders consumes variable points based on the order. Points refresh at the end of each time window. Please take note of the RateLimit-Remaining header to track points usage.

Response Headers

Field Description
RateLimit-Remaining Points remaining in the time window.
RateLimit-Reset Timestamp that the time window ends, in Epoch milliseconds.
Retry-After Milliseconds until the next time window. Header included only when the limit has been reached.
RateLimit-Limit The maximum amount of points allowed per time window.
Request Limit
GET v3/* 175 requests per 10 seconds.
PUT v3/emails/send-verification-email 2 requests for 10 minutes.
DELETE v3/orders See Cancel-Order Rate Limits
POST v3/orders See Place-Order Rate-Limits
POST v3/testnet/tokens 5 requests per 24 hours.
GET v3/active-orders See Active-Order Rate-Limits
DELETE v3/active-orders See Active-Order Rate-Limits
All other requests 10 requests per minute.

Rate Limit - Websocket

Limits are enforced per connectionId.

Request Limit
subscribe v3_accounts, v3_markets 2 requests per 1 second.
subscribe v3_orderbook, v3_trades 2 requests for 1 second per market.
ping 5 requests per 1 second.

Cancel-Order Rate Limits

Canceling orders is limited per asset-pair and is intended to be higher than the limit on placing orders.

DELETE v3/orders requests are limited to 3 requests per 10 seconds per asset-pair.

DELETE v3/orders/:id requests are limited to 250 requests per 10 seconds per asset-pair.

Place-Order Rate-Limits

Order rate limits are limited to maxPoints spent (per asset-pair) in a fixed window of windowSec seconds.

We want to give priority to those who are making the largest orders and who are contributing the most liquidity to the exchange. Therefore, placing larger orders is subject to higher limits (i.e. larger orders carry a lower point cost). The point cost is based on the orderNotional which is equal to the size * price of the order.

Limit-order point consumption is equal to:

orderConsumption = clamp(
  ceil(targetNotional / orderNotional),
  minOrderConsumption,
  maxOrderConsumption
)

The minOrderConsumption is different for each order type, and can be one of minLimitConsumption, minMarketConsumption, or minTriggerableConsumption. Limit orders that are Fill-or-Kill or Immediate-or-Cancel are considered to be market orders for the purposes of rate limiting.

The values of the above variables as of March 15th, 2022 are listed below, but the most up-to-date values can be found in the v3/config endpoint.

Variable Value
maxPoints 1,750
windowSec 10
targetNotional 40,000
minLimitConsumption 4
minMarketConsumption 20
minTriggerableConsumption 100
maxOrderConsumption 100

Active-Order Rate-Limits

Querying active orders is limited per endpoint and per asset and is intended to be higher than the respective DELETE and GET endpoints these new endpoints replace.

DELETE Active-Orders Rate Limits

DELETE v3/active-orders/*

GET Active-Orders Rate Limits

GET v3/active-orders/*

Other Limits

Accounts may only have up to 20 open orders for a given market/side pair at any one time. (For example up to 20 open BTC-USD bids).

Perpetual Contracts

The dYdX Perpetual is a non-custodial, decentralized margin product that offers synthetic exposure to a variety of assets.

Margin

Collateral is held as USDC, and the quote asset for all perpetual markets is USDC. Cross-margining is used by default, meaning an account can open multiple positions that share the same collateral. Isolated margin can be achieved by creating separate accounts (sub-accounts) under the same user.

Each market has three risk parameters, the initialMarginFraction, maintenanceMarginFraction and incrementalInitialMarginFraction, which determine the max leverage available within that market. These are used to calculate the value that must be held by an account in order to open or increase positions (in the case of initial margin) or avoid liquidation (in the case of maintenance margin).

Risk Description
initialMarginFraction The margin fraction needed to open a position.
maintenanceMarginFraction The margin fraction required to prevent liquidation.
incrementalInitialMarginFraction The increase of initialMarginFraction for each incrementalPositionSize above the baselinePositionSize the position is.
baselinePositionSize The max position size (in base token) before increasing the initial-margin-fraction.
incrementalPositionSize The step size (in base token) for increasing the initialMarginFraction by (incrementalInitialMarginFraction per step).

Portfolio Margining

There is no distinction between realized and unrealized PnL for the purposes of margin calculations. Gains from one position will offset losses from another position within the same account, regardless of whether the profitable position is closed.

Margin Calculation

The margin requirement for a single position is calculated as follows:

Initial Margin Requirement = abs(S × P × I)
Maintenance Margin Requirement = abs(S × P × M)

Where:

The margin requirement for the account as a whole is the sum of the margin requirement over each market i in which the account holds a position:

Total Initial Margin Requirement = Σ abs(Si × Pi × Ii)
Total Maintenance Margin Requirement = Σ abs(Si × Pi × Mi)

The total margin requirement is compared against the total value of the account, which incorporates the quote asset (USDC) balance of the account as well as the value of the positions held by the account:

Total Account Value = Q + Σ (Si × Pi)

The Total Account Value is also referred to as equity.

Where:

An account cannot open new positions or increase the size of existing positions if it would lead the total account value of the account to drop below the total initial margin requirement. If the total account value ever falls below the total maintenance margin requirement, the account may be liquidated.

Free collateral is calculated as:

Free collateral = Total Account Value - Total Initial Margin Requirement

Equity and free collateral can be tracked over time using the latest oracle price (obtained from the markets websocket).

Liquidations

Accounts whose total value falls below the maintenance margin requirement (described above) may have their positions automatically closed by the liquidation engine. Positions are closed at the close price described below. Profits or losses from liquidations are taken on by the insurance fund.

Close Price for Liquidations

The close price for a position being liquidated is calculated as follows, depending whether it is a short or long position:

Close Price (Short) = P × (1 + (M × V / W))
Close Price (Long) = P × (1 − (M × V / W))

Where:

This formula is chosen such that the ratio V / W is unchanged as individual positions are liquidated.

Funding

Funding payments are exchanged between long and short traders to encourage the price of a perpetual contract to trade close to the price of the underlying. If the perpetual trades at a premium relative to the index, long traders will typically make payments to short traders, whereas if the perpetual trades at a discount relative to the index, short traders will typically make payments to long traders.

The payments are credited or debited at the start of each hour, and are included in the realized PnL for the position.

Funding payments can be found by calling Get /v3/funding and the predicted funding rate can be found by calling Get v3/markets.

Funding Rate Units

Since funding payments are exchanged every hour, the dYdX funding rate is usually represented as a 1-hour rate, which represents the return a position may expect to earn or pay every hour.

When calculating the funding rate, the premium is scaled to have a realization period of 8 hours. That means, for example, that if a certain perpetual market trades consistently at a 0.1% premium relative to the underlying, long traders may expect to pay ~0.1% every 8 hours, and short traders may expect to earn a ~0.1% return every 8 hours (not accounting for the interest rate component).

Funding Payment Calculation

At the start of each hour, an account receives USDC (if F is positive) or pays USDC (if F is negative) in an amount equal to:

F = (-1) × S × P × R

Where:

Funding Rate Calculation

The main component of the funding rate is a premium that takes into account market activity for the perpetual. It is calculated for each market, every minute (at a random point within the minute) using the formula:

Premium = (Max(0, Impact Bid Price - Index Price) - Max(0, Index Price - Impact Ask Price)) / Index Price

Where the impact bid and impact ask prices are defined as:

Impact Bid Price = Average execution price for a market sell of the impact notional value
Impact Ask Price = Average execution price for a market buy of the impact notional value

And the impact notional amount for a market is:

Impact Notional Amount = 500 USDC / Initial Margin Fraction

For example, for a market with a 10% initial margin fraction, the impact notional value is 5,000 USDC.

At the end of each hour, the premium component is calculated as the simple average (i.e. TWAP) of the 60 premiums calculated over the course of the last hour. In addition to the premium component, each market has a fixed interest rate component that aims to account for the difference in interest rates of the base and quote currencies. The funding rate is then:

Funding Rate = (Premium Component / 8) + Interest Rate Component

Currently, the interest rate component for all dYdX markets is 0.00125% (equivalent to 0.01% per 8 hours).

Contract Loss Mechanisms

During periods of high volatility in the markets underlying the perpetual contracts, the value of some accounts may drop below zero before they can be liquidated.

The insurance fund is the first backstop to maintain the solvency of the system when an account has a negative balance. The account will be liquidated, and the insurance fund will take on the loss.

In the event that the insurance fund is depleted, positions with the most profit and leverage may be used to offset negative-balance accounts, in order to maintain the stability of the system.

Oracle Prices

The Oracle Price for each trading pair is used for the following:

Calculation

Oracle prices are equal to the median of the reported prices of 15 independent Chainlink nodes.

Node Providers

Index Prices

The Index Price for each trading pair is used for the following:

Calculation

Index prices are equal to the median of several exchanges' spot prices.

Each exchange's spot price is calculated as the median of the best-ask, best-bid, and last-traded prices of its spot pair.

If the exchange's quote-asset is a non-USD asset (including USDT), the price is adjusted by our index price for that asset.

Exchange Sources

USDT-USD

For USDT pairs where USDT is the quote asset, the implied price of USDT is taken to be the reciprocal of: the exchange price divided by the index price of the base asset.

See the examples folder for simple typescript examples.

Client Initialization

Initialize

client = Client(
    host='https://api.dydx.exchange',
    web3=Web3('...'),
    stark_private_key='01234abcd...',
)

const client: DydxClient = new Client(
    'host',
    {
        apiTimeout: 3000,
        starkPrivateKey: '01234abcd...',
    },
);

The client is organized into modules, based on the type of authentication needed for different requests. The configuration options passed into the client determine which modules are available. See Authentication for more information.

Module Description
public Public API endpoints. Does not require authentication.
onboarding Endpoint to create a new user, authenticated via Ethereum key.
api_keys Endpoints for managing API keys, authenticated via Ethereum key.
private All other private endpoints, authenticated via API key.
eth Calling and querying L1 Ethereum smart contracts.

The following configuration options are available:

Parameter Description
host The HTTP API host.
api_timeout Timeout for HTTP requests, in milliseconds.
default_ethereum_address (Optional) The default account for Ethereum key auth and sending Ethereum transactions.
eth_private_key (Optional) May be used for Ethereum key auth.
eth_send_options (Optional) Options for Ethereum transactions, see sendTransaction.
network_id (Optional) Chain ID for Ethereum key auth and smart contract addresses. Defaults to web3.net.version if available, or 1 (mainnet).
stark_private_key (Optional) STARK private key, used to sign orders and withdrawals.
web3 (Optional) Web3 object used for Ethereum key auth and/or smart contract interactions.
web3_account (Optional) May be used for Ethereum key auth.
web3_provider (Optional) Web3 provider object, same usage as web3.
api_key_credentials (Optional) Dictionary containing the key, secret and passphrase required for the private module to sign requests.
crypto_c_exports_path (Optional) For python only, will use faster C++ code to run hashing, signing and verifying. It's expected to be compiled from the crypto_c_exports target from Starkware's repository. See section on this below for more information.

C++ Methods for Faster STARK Signing

The C++ wrapper methods in the client expect an absolute path to a Shared Object. This has to be compiled from Starkware's crypto C++ library.

Private HTTP API

Authentication

There are three levels of authentication to be considered when using dYdX. All signing can be handled directly by the client libraries.

Ethereum Key Authentication

The highest level of authentication is via an account's Ethereum private key. The Ethereum key remains in control of an account's funds while they are within the L2 system. This includes the ability to forcibly close an account's positions and exit the system, in the event that the L2 operators (dYdX and Starkware) were to unexpectedly go offline or otherwise censor requests.

Ethereum key authentication is required for the following operations:

STARK Key Authentication

Within the L2 system, authentication is handled by a separate key pair, known as the account's STARK key pair.

STARK key authentication is required for the following operations:

API Key Authentication

The third level of authentication consists of the API key, secret and passphrase which are used solely to authenticate API requests made to dYdX. This includes operations such as canceling orders or retrieving an account's fills, which do not affect the L2 system.

When a user onboards via POST v3/onboarding, the server will use the signature as a seed to determinstically generate default API key credentials. An API key includes three fields:

API keys can be added and managed via the /v3/api-keys endpoints.

All requests which are not signed by an Ethereum key and which are made to private endpoints require an API key signature.

STARK Key Cryptography

The STARK and API keys are ECDSA key pairs on the STARK curve. More info on the cryptography used on L2 is available in Starkware's documentation.

Creating and Signing Requests

Within the private HTTP API, there are three groups of endpoints which each require different headers and authentication.

(Separately, and in addition to the above, STARK signatures are required for orders and withdrawals. For details, please refer to the Python and TypeScript reference implementations.)

Onboarding Endpoint: POST v3/onboarding

Request Headers

Header Required? Description
DYDX-SIGNATURE yes Ethereum key authentication
DYDX-ETHEREUM-ADDRESS yes Ethereum address of the user

Signing

The header DYDX-SIGNATURE is an EIP-712 Ethereum signature on a static message containing the fields:

See reference implementations: [Python] [TypeScript]

Ethereum Key Private Endpoints

This group includes the POST and DELETE v3/api-keys endpoints for managing API keys. Like the onboarding endpoint, requests to these endpoints require signatures by the user's Ethereum key.

Request Headers

Header Required? Description
DYDX-SIGNATURE yes Ethereum key authentication
DYDX-ETHEREUM-ADDRESS yes Ethereum address of the user
DYDX-TIMESTAMP yes ISO timestamp of when the request was signed. Must be within 30 seconds of the server time.

Signing

The header DYDX-SIGNATURE is an EIP-712-compliant Ethereum signature on a message containing the fields:

See reference implementations: [Python] [TypeScript]

API Key Private Endpoints

All private endpoints not listed above fall in this category, and must be authenticated via an API key.

Request Headers

Header Required? Description
DYDX-SIGNATURE yes HMAC of the request.
DYDX-API-KEY yes Api key for the account.
DYDX-TIMESTAMP yes ISO timestamp of when the request was signed. Must be within 30 seconds of the server time.
DYDX-PASSPHRASE yes The passphrase field of the API key.
DYDX-ACCOUNT-NUMBER no Account number used to scope the request. Defaults to zero.

Signing

The DYDX-SIGNATURE is a SHA-256 HMAC produced as described below, and encoded as a Base64 string.

A SHA-256 HMAC is created using the API key secret and the message timestamp + method + requestPath + body defined as follows:

The HMAC should be encoded as a Base64 string and sent as the DYDX-SIGNATURE header.

See reference implementations: [Python] [TypeScript]

Onboarding

Overview

A few steps are required of all accounts before they can begin trading:

  1. Create a user, providing a STARK public key to be associated with the main account.
  2. Request registration signature from dYdX.
  3. Send registration request to the L1 smart contract.
  4. Approve collateral token allowance on the L1 smart contract.
  5. Deposit collateral token to the L1 smart contract.

All of these steps are supported by the Python and TypeScript clients. See the Python integration tests for an example of onboarding and usage of various endpoints.

Fast vs. Slow Withdrawal

The normal process for withdrawing from L2 to L1 requires waiting for a block of L2 transactions to be collected, and the zero-knowledge proof for the block to be constructed and verified on-chain.

Using the fast withdrawal process, users can get their funds on L1 much faster by essentially trading their L2 funds to an “LP” account operated by dYdX, in order to receive immediate liquidity on L1. Since the LP must then recycle these funds from L2 to L1 via the regular withdrawal process, dYdX is only able to process a certain volume of fast withdrawals within a given period of time.

POST v3/withdrawals

Description: Create a withdrawal from an account.

An additional L1 transaction has to be sent to the Starkware contract to retrieve funds after a slow withdrawal. This cannot be done until the zero-knowledge proof for the block has been constructed and verified on-chain. For the L1 transaction, the Ethereum address that the starkKey is registered to must call either the withdraw or withdrawTo smart-contract functions. The contract ABI is not tied to a particular client but can be accessed via a client. All withdrawable funds are withdrawn at once.

Both Layer 1 withdrawal methods can be accessed from starkex-eth.

Request

Parameter Description
amount Amount to be withdrawn.
asset Asset being withdrawn. Can currently only be USDC.
expiration Datetime at which the withdrawal expires if it has not been completed. Expiration must be at least seven days in the future.
clientId Unique id of the client associated with the withdrawal. Must be <= 40 characters. When using the client, if not included, will be randomly generated by the client.
signature The signature for the withdrawal, signed with the account's STARK private key. When using the client, if not included, will be done by the client. For more information see above.

Response

Parameter Description
withdrawal See Transfers.

HTTP Request

POST v3/orders

Description: Create a new order.

Request

Parameter Description
market Market of the order.
side Either BUY or SELL.
type The type of order. This can be MARKET, LIMIT, STOP_LIMIT, TRAILING_STOP or TAKE_PROFIT.
postOnly Whether the order should be canceled if it would fill immediately on reaching the matching-engine.
size Size of the order, in base currency (i.e. an ETH-USD position of size 1 represents 1 ETH).
price Worst accepted price of the base asset in USD.
limitFee Is the highest accepted fee for the trade. See below for more information.
expiration Time at which the order will expire if not filled. This is the Good-Til-Time and is accurate to a granularity of about 15 seconds.
timeInForce (Optional) One of GTT (Good til time), FOK(Fill or kill) or IOC (Immediate or cancel). This will default to GTT.
cancelId (Optional) The id of the order that is being replaced by this one.
triggerPrice (Optional) The triggerPrice at which this order will go to the matching-engine.
trailingPercent (Optional) The percent that the triggerPrice trails the index price of the market.
reduceOnly (Optional) Whether the order should be reduce-only. Only supported on FOK(Fill or kill) or IOC (Immediate or cancel) orders.
clientId Unique id of the client associated with the order. Must be <= 40 characters. When using the client, if not included, will be randomly generated by the client.
signature Signature for the order, signed with the account's STARK private key. When using the client, if not included, will be done by the client. For more information see above.

Response

Parameter Description
order See order.

Order LimitFee

The limitFee is the highest fee a user would be willing to accept on an order. This should be in decimal form (i.e. 0.1 is 10%). To see current fees, call GET /v3/users and the maker/taker fee rates show what fees will be. If the order is postOnly dYdX will validate against makerFeeRate only. The opposite is true if the order is FOK or IOC - dYdX will only validate against takerFeeRate. Otherwise, dYdX assesses against the maximum of maker and taker fee rate.

Tick Size and Minimum Size

Tick Size

Each market has a specified tickSize. Order price must be a multiple of the tickSize. The same applies to triggerPrice and trailingPercent if either of these are not null.

Minimum Size

Each market has a specified minOrderSize. Order size must be not be less than the minOrderSize.

Order Deletion

Canceled orders older than one month are deleted from the dYdX database.

Reduce Only

A reduce-only order can only reduce an existing position.

The reduce-only option can be combined with any order type (Limit, Market, Stop Loss, Take Profit, Trailing Stop), but is only available for taker orders (Immediate-or-Cancel and Fill-or-Kill).

UNTRIGGERED reduce-only orders are either resized or canceled (with cancel reason REDUCE_ONLY_RESIZED) if the underlying position shrinks or no longer exists. When there are multiple UNTRIGGERED reduce-only orders and the total order size exceeds the existing position, they will be resized/canceled starting from the order that will be filled last.

Orderbook

To subscribe:

field type description
type string Set to subscribe
channel string Set to v3_orderbook
id string The market to subscribe to e.g. BTC-USD, LINK-USD
includeOffsets (optional) boolean If specified, this will return an initial response with per-price level offsets

Initial Response:

The initial response will contain the state of the orderbook and will be the same structure as GET /v3/orderbook/:market. If includeOffsets is sent and set to true in the subscription message, there will be an offset included for each price level. (See the example included)

field description
type will be subscribed
channel the channel name, i.e. v3_orderbook
id the market subscribed to e.g. BTC-USD
contents the message contents

The contents is structured as:

field type description
offset string A number used for ordering. See offset below.
bids array See PublicOrder below. Sorted by price in descending order
asks array See PublicOrder below. Sorted by price in ascending order

PublicOrder:

field type description
price string human readable price of the order (in quote / base currency)
size string human readable size of the order (in base currency)
offset string (if includeOffsets is set to true) the offset for the specific price

Offset:

The price updates are not guaranteed to be sent in order. So it is possible to receive an older price update later. For this reason, the offset is included in the message, to help order. The offset increases monotonically, and increasing values of offsets indicate more recent values.

Example messages:

Example initial response:

{
  "type": "subscribed",
  "connection_id": "87b25218-0170-4111-bfbf-d9f0a506fcab",

      {
        "price": "1779",
        "size": "11.24"
      },
      {
        "price": "1778.5",
        "size": "18"
      }
    ],
    "asks": [

      {
        "price": "1784",
        "size": "2.81"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Example initial response if includeOffsets is set to true:

Request:

{
  "type": "subscribe",
  "channel": "v3_orderbook",
  "id": "ETH-USD",
  "includeOffsets": "true"
}

Response:

{
  "type": "subscribed",
  "connection_id": "14f7c481-1e1f-4f5c-8c5c-7b114209d8ce",
  "message_id": 1,

        "price": "1778.8",
        "offset": "36850163",
        "size": "11"
      },
      {
        "price": "1776.7",
        "offset": "36849225",
        "size": "5.9"
      }

      },
      {
        "price": "1784",
        "offset": "36848433",
        "size": "4.3"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Channel Data

Subsequent responses will contain the new order sizes for any price levels that have changed since the previous update:

e.g:

Subsequent messages

{
  "type": "channel_data",
  "id": "BTC-USD",
  "connection_id": "e2a6c717-6f77-4c1c-ac22-72ce2b7ed77d",
  "channel": "v3_orderbook",
  "message_id": 2,
  "contents": {
    "offset": "178",
    "bids": [["102", "12"]],
    "asks": [["104", "0" ]]
  }
}

E.g: if some orders at "102" price, get filled, then the update would be ["102", "12"], where "12" is the new size. If there are no more asks at "104", then the ask update would be ["104", "0"].
