Details
- Authentication
- None. Public endpoint.
- Rate limit
- 1200 requests per minute per IP
- Server cache
- 60s
- Edge micro-cache
- 10s
- Update frequency
- Collector round every 10 minutes; a venue is fresh for 25 minutes after its last successful round.
- Window
- Latest snapshot per expiry; volume fields cover the trailing 24 hours.
- Data sources
- Public REST option endpoints of Deribit, Binance, Bybit, OKX, Gate and Coincall, collected and stored by CoinBoss (sd_opt_latest, sd_opt_summary_hourly). No third-party aggregator is involved.
- Exchange coverage
- Six option venues. A coin that has no listed options on the selected venues returns HTTP 200 with null fields, `meta.quality = "UNAVAILABLE"` and the reason under `coverage.unavailable`. Venues without a public option feed are listed there as well.
- Sorting
- Expiry date ascending.
- Units
- USD notional = contracts × contract size × spot index price of the venue. `*_coin` fields are in units of the underlying coin. Implied volatility is in percent (55 = 55 %). `vol_premium_usd_24h` is premium turnover, reported separately and never added to notional volume.
- Method
- Contracts of different venues are grouped by UTC expiry date. Max pain and ATM IV are computed per expiry; `oi_share_pct` is the share of that expiry in the total open interest of the selection.
- Timestamps
- Unix epoch milliseconds (UTC) unless the field description says otherwise
- Response format
- json
- Stability
- Stable
- Available since
- 2026-11-11

Errors
Failed calls share one shape on every endpoint. The full list is on the errors page. Errors and rate limits →
| Code | HTTP | Meaning | What to do |
|---|---|---|---|
| INVALID_PARAM | 400 | A required parameter is missing or a value is not accepted. `param` names the parameter when it is known. | Do not retry unchanged; fix the request. |
| UNAUTHORIZED | 401 | The `CB-API-KEY` header was sent but the key is unknown or revoked. Public data needs no key — drop the header or use a valid key. | Do not retry unchanged. |
| FORBIDDEN | 403 | The route is not part of the public API (internal or account-only). | Do not retry. |
| NOT_FOUND | 404 | Unknown route, or the requested coin / exchange / fund does not exist. | Do not retry; check the path and identifiers against the catalog. |
| RATE_LIMITED | 429 | More requests than the per-minute limit. `Retry-After` gives the seconds to wait. | Wait for `Retry-After`, then retry with backoff. |
| INTERNAL | 500 | Unexpected server error. The message is generic by design; quote `request_id` when reporting it. | Retry once after a few seconds; report it with the request id if it persists. |
| UPSTREAM_FAILED | 503 | The data source behind this endpoint did not answer in time. No stale or substitute numbers are returned in its place. | Retry with backoff; check the status page. |
| UNAVAILABLE | 501 / 503 | The dataset is temporarily not ready (cache warming) or the endpoint has no lawful public source yet. | Retry later; the catalog marks endpoints that are unavailable by design. |
| REQUEST_FAILED | 200 | Some older endpoints answer HTTP 200 with `success: false`. Always check `success`, not only the HTTP status. | Depends on the message; treat as a failed request. |
