User data stream
- Start:
POST /fapi/v3/listenKey(signed) →{"listenKey": "..."}. If account already has active listenKey, same key returned and validity extended 60 min. - Connect:
wss://fstream.asterdex.com/ws/<listenKey>. - Keepalive:
PUT /fapi/v3/listenKey(signed) at least every <60 min (e.g. every 30 min). - Close:
DELETE /fapi/v3/listenKey(signed).
User data events are not guaranteed in order during heavy load; order updates by event time E.
Events: ACCOUNT_UPDATE (balance/position), ORDER_TRADE_UPDATE, ACCOUNT_CONFIG_UPDATE (leverage, multi-asset, position mode), MARGIN_CALL, listenKeyExpired.
Order book sync (depth stream)
- Connect to
btcusdt@depth(or combined). - Buffer incoming events.
- Get snapshot:
GET /fapi/v3/depth?symbol=BTCUSDT&limit=1000. - Drop events with
u< snapshotlastUpdateId. - First valid event:
U≤lastUpdateIdandu≥lastUpdateId. - Then each event’s
pumust equal previous event’su; else re-sync from step 3. - Quantity in events is absolute; quantity 0 means remove that price level.
