Base-Quote OHLCV

The "SUBSCRIBE_BASE_QUOTE_PRICE" event allows you to receive real-time updates about price changes for any token pairs without needing to input a specific pair address; you can simply pass the two token addresses you want to track. You can subscribe to price updates for these token pairs in the form of OHLCV (Open, High, Low, Close, Volume) data. This subscription is useful for tracking price movements and trends on the Birdeye platform.

Code Example

Check out this Github file for an example:

https://github.com/TheNang2710/bds-public/blob/main/ws-base-quote.js

1. WebSocket URL:

wss://public-api.birdeye.so/socket/solana?x-api-key=YOUR-API-KEY

Header

Key	Value
`Origin`	ws://public-api.birdeye.so
`Sec-WebSocket-Origin`	ws://public-api.birdeye.so
`Sec-WebSocket-Protocol`	echo-protocol

2. Subscribe to Base-Quote Price (OHLCV)

To receive real-time updates about price changes for a specific token pair in the form of OHLCV data, use the following subscription message format:

Subscription message

{
  "type": "SUBSCRIBE_BASE_QUOTE_PRICE",
  "data": {
    "baseAddress": "XsDoVfqeBukxuZHWhdvWHBhgEHjGNst4MLodqsJHzoB",
    "quoteAddress": "So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112",
    "chartType": "1m",
    "mode": "both"
  }
}

Subscription fields

Field	Type	Required	Description
`baseAddress`	string	Yes	Base token address.
`quoteAddress`	string	Yes	Quote token address.
`chartType`	string	Yes	OHLCV interval. Example: `1m`.
`mode`	string	No	Controls which OHLCV values are returned. Supported values: `raw`, `scaled`, `both`.

Mode values

Use mode to control whether the WebSocket response includes raw OHLCV values, scaled OHLCV values, or both.

Mode	Description
`raw`	Returns raw OHLCV fields: `o`, `h`, `l`, `c`, and `v`.
`scaled`	Returns scaled OHLCV fields: `scaledO`, `scaledH`, `scaledL`, `scaledC`, and `scaledV`.
`both`	Returns both raw and scaled OHLCV fields.

Implementation Example in JavaScript

Use the above github js code and run

node ws-base-quote.js solana So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112 EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v 1m

Explanation:

solana: The blockchain chain to subscribe to (e.g., Solana).
So11111111111111111111111111111111111111112: The base token address.
EPjFWdd5AufqSSqeM2qN1xzybapC8G4wEGGkZwyTDt1v: The quote token address (e.g., USDC).
1m: The chart type, which is the interval for OHLCV data (e.g., 1 minute).

Note:

This example subscribes to real-time price updates for a token pair and logs the Open, High, Low, Close, and Volume data to the console. The subscription is automatically closed after 1 hour.
This WebSocket only support 1 base-quote pair for 1 connection. You need to open another connection for new base-quote subscription.
