Exchange-published instrument rules as synced on 2026-10-10: tick size = smallest price step, lot size = smallest quantity step, minimums as order quantity in base units · notional in quote currency, contract size per contract, funding = settlement interval of the perpetual. Every day file carries the same fields in its first line. Venues change these rules — check the venue before trading.

Guides featuring Coinbase data
Coinbase Spot in real time — WebSocket feed by the UTC day
The same Coinbase Spot feed that fills this archive streams live: order book and trades over WebSocket (JSON or SBE), captured at the venue in Ashburn and delivered at our Ohio or Tokyo endpoints over dedicated lines.
Coinbase lines: ~4.6 ms Ashburn → Ohio and ~67.7 ms Ashburn → Tokyo — one-way line latency from the site where the venue is captured to our endpoint — the venue's own latency and the on-ramp to your client come on top.
Bought self-serve by the UTC calendar day — €49 per instrument-day or €99 per market-day; no subscription, nothing renews. Enterprise subscriptions already cover further locations and venues.
Why buy Coinbase data here
Four things every page on this site is built on — and the reason the numbers above exist at all.
We record everything
The complete public feed of each venue as it was published: every Level-2 snapshot and update at the venue's full book depth, every trade with its aggressor side, every quote, funding, mark-price and liquidation event — for every instrument the venue lists, every UTC day since we added the venue. Nothing sampled, no top-N cut, no on-demand capture.
Institutional grade
Captured co-located at the venue with the exchange timestamp and our receive timestamp in integer nanoseconds, an event-id chain that makes any gap visible, and one normalized schema across 35+ venues — the same capture our own high-frequency trading engine and enterprise feeds run on.
€1 per instrument-day
Any instrument-day is €1, series-day bundles start at €1 — no subscription, no minimum order, no tiers to unlock. Credit packs lower the effective price and never expire, and every venue has free full-day samples to test against first.
Self-service for everyone
Pick the days in the Data Shop, pay by card as a guest and download immediately — no sales call, no enterprise contract, no KYC. Coding agents buy the same files through the MCP server, and the free Agent Skill teaches them the format.

Coinbase historical data — FAQ
What Coinbase historical market data can I download?
Tick-by-tick trades, Level-2 order-book depth, 1-minute OHLCV/VWAP and bid-ask spreads for 514 Coinbase instruments across spot. Each file is one instrument for one UTC day.
How far back does Coinbase data go?
Coinbase coverage runs October 2023 – present. Each day is one complete tick file — not a snapshot or candle feed — at €1 per instrument-day, self-service, with no subscription. Availability varies per instrument — check the per-instrument calendar on the analyze page.
Do you provide Coinbase order-book and L2 depth data?
Yes — every file carries the full Level-2 book as the venue published it: one snapshot, then every incremental update at the venue's full depth, plus top-of-book where Coinbase publishes a separate stream, alongside the raw trade stream — one schema across all venues.
Do you record every Coinbase instrument, or only the top pairs?
Every instrument Coinbase lists, every message it publishes, every UTC day since we added the venue — 514 instruments so far. No top-N cut, no sampling, no capture on demand; the archive is the complete feed, recorded co-located with nanosecond timestamps.
What format are the Coinbase data files in?
One zstd-compressed text file per instrument per UTC day, in the schema documented in the market-data specification. Grab free samples on the downloads page.
Can I download Coinbase data as CSV or Parquet?
Yes — every free sample and every purchased tick day also exports as gzipped CSV or Parquet at no extra cost: trades in both formats. Coinbase records full order-book depth without a separate BBO stream — the free reader script converts depth locally. Timestamps are integer microseconds UTC and the columns load straight into pandas, polars or DuckDB — see the formats overview.

€1 per Coinbase instrument-day — no subscription, no minimum order, no account needed: buy as a guest, download instantly, or use credit packs that never expire. Free full-day samples first on the downloads page; details on pricing.

2025-10-10, with $7.5B of USD turnover over 10,925,330 trades (365-day window ending 2026-10-09). The busiest full month was Nov 2025 at $94.5B. Any of these days can be downloaded per instrument from the shop.
