{% hint style="info" %}
Data collection before 2020-05-14 suffered some issues (missing data, latency spikes) during market volatility periods. It has been circumvented by switching to [Tokyo DC](#market-data-collection-details) and using multiple WS connections for real-time market data collection.

### Downloadable **CSV** files

Historical CSV datasets for the first day of each month are **available to download without API key**. See [downloadable CSV files documentation](/downloadable-csv-files/overview.md).

`derivative_ticker` **open interest data is available since 2020-05-13** - date since we've started collecting that info via Binance USDS-M Futures REST API (open interest channel).

### API Access and data format

Historical data format is the same as provided by real-time Binance USDS-M Futures WebSocket API with addition of local timestamps. If you'd like to work with **normalized data format** instead (same format for each exchange) see [downloadable CSV files](/downloadable-csv-files/overview.md) or official [client libs](/api/quickstart.md) that perform data normalization client-side.

* [trade](https://api.tardis.dev/v1/data-feeds/binance-futures?from=2024-01-01\&filters=\[{%22channel%22:%22trade%22}]) Public futures trade executions stream
* [depth](https://api.tardis.dev/v1/data-feeds/binance-futures?from=2024-01-01\&filters=\[{%22channel%22:%22depth%22,%22symbols%22:\[%22btcusdt%22]}]) Incremental futures order book updates stream. Recorded with the fastest API cadence available at the time: until 2020-01-07 it was subscribed as `depth@100ms` (100ms updates), after that as `depth@0ms` (real-time dynamically adjusted update speed).
* [depthSnapshot](https://api.tardis.dev/v1/data-feeds/binance-futures?from=2024-01-01\&filters=\[{%22channel%22:%22depthSnapshot%22,%22symbols%22:\[%22btcusdt%22]}]) — generated channel Binance USDS-M Futures real-time WebSocket API **does not provide initial order book snapshots**. To overcome this issue we fetch initial order book snapshots from REST API and store them together with the rest of the WebSocket messages — top 1000 levels. Such snapshot messages are marked with `"stream":"<symbol>@depthSnapshot"` and `"generated":true` fields.

  During data collection integrity of order book incremental updates is being validated using [sequence numbers](https://binance-docs.github.io/apidocs/futures/en/#how-to-manage-a-local-order-book-correctly) provided by real-time feed (`pu` and `u` fields) — in case of detecting missed message WebSocket connection is being restarted. We also validate if initial book snapshot fetched from REST API overlaps with received `depth` messages.
* [bookTicker](https://api.tardis.dev/v1/data-feeds/binance-futures?from=2024-01-01\&filters=\[{%22channel%22:%22bookTicker%22,%22symbols%22:\[%22btcusdt%22]}]) Best bid and best ask updates stream

Subscribed as `@markPrice@1s`. The 1s update speed has been available since 2020-02-13; before that the default (3s) speed was used.
* [premiumIndex](https://api.tardis.dev/v1/data-feeds/binance-futures?from=2026-05-01\&filters=\[{%22channel%22:%22premiumIndex%22,%22symbols%22:\[%22btcusdt%22]}]) — generated channel, available since **2026-04-11**

  Snapshots are fetched from the REST [mark price endpoint](https://developers.binance.com/docs/derivatives/usds-margined-futures/market-data/rest-api/Mark-Price) about every 6 seconds for all instruments. The recorder splits the REST response into one generated message per instrument, marked with `"stream":"<symbol>@premiumIndex"` and `"generated":true` fields. This channel includes the `interestRate` field that is not present on the WebSocket `markPrice` stream.
* [indexConstituents](https://api.tardis.dev/v1/data-feeds/binance-futures?from=2026-05-01\&filters=\[{%22channel%22:%22indexConstituents%22,%22symbols%22:\[%22btcusdt%22]}]) — generated channel, available since **2026-04-23**

  Snapshots are fetched from the REST [open interest endpoint](https://binance-docs.github.io/apidocs/futures/en/#open-interest) about every 6 seconds per instrument. Messages are marked with `"stream":"<symbol>@openInterest"` and `"generated":true` fields with REST response format.

  Snapshots are fetched from the REST [funding info endpoint](https://developers.binance.com/docs/derivatives/usds-margined-futures/market-data/rest-api/Get-Funding-Rate-Info) every minute. Binance returns only symbols with adjusted funding cap, floor, or interval. Messages are marked with `"stream":"<symbol>@fundingInfo"` and `"generated":true` fields with REST response format.
