​
Overview

The quote endpoint provides real-time pricing information for converting between two tokens. Use this endpoint before executing a conversion to get accurate estimates of exchange rates, fees, and limits.

​
Endpoint

​
Path Parameters

​
tokenFrom
string
required
Source token symbol to convert from (e.g., BTC, ETH, USDC)
​

​
Query Parameters

The quote endpoint can be configured with polling intervals for real-time updates:
​
pollIntervalMs

​
Quote Refresh Behavior

The quote endpoint is designed for real-time price tracking:
  • Stale Time: 5 minutes (300,000ms)
  • Default Refresh Interval: 5 minutes (300,000ms)
  • Background Refresh: Enabled when pollIntervalMs > 0
  • Refetch on Mount: Only if data is stale

​
Customizing Refresh Intervals

// Refresh every 30 seconds for high-frequency trading
const quote = useQuote(userId, "ETH", "USDC", false, 30000);

// Disable automatic refresh
const quote = useQuote(userId, "BTC", "ETH", false, 0);

// Default 5-minute refresh
const quote = useQuote(userId, "SOL", "USDT", false, 300000);

​
Price Calculation

The estPrice field represents the exchange rate between the two tokens: 
estDestAmount = estSourceAmount × estPrice
For example:
  • If converting 1 BTC to USDT
  • And estPrice = “68432.50”
  • Then estDestAmount = “68432.50” USDT

​
Size Limits

  • Minimum Size (estMinSize): Smallest amount you can convert
  • Maximum Size (estMaxSize): Largest amount you can convert in a single transaction
These limits are enforced to ensure market stability and liquidity availability.

​
Fee Structure

Fees depend on order execution type:
  • Maker Fee: Applied when your order adds liquidity to the order book (typically lower)
  • Taker Fee: Applied when your order removes liquidity from the order book (typically higher)
Most conversions execute as market orders and incur taker fees.

​
Common Use Cases

​
Real-Time Price Display

const { data: quote, isLoading } = useQuote(
  userId,
  "ETH",
  "USDC",
  false,
  10000 // Refresh every 10 seconds
);

if (!isLoading && quote) {
  console.log(`1 ETH = ${quote.estPrice} USDC`);
}

​
Pre-Conversion Validation

const amount = "5.0";
const quote = await fetchQuote("BTC", "ETH");

if (parseFloat(amount) < parseFloat(quote.estMinSize)) {
  console.error(`Minimum conversion amount is ${quote.estMinSize}`);
}

if (parseFloat(amount) > parseFloat(quote.estMaxSize)) {
  console.error(`Maximum conversion amount is ${quote.estMaxSize}`);
}

​
Calculating Expected Output

const inputAmount = "2.5"; // 2.5 BTC
const quote = await fetchQuote("BTC", "USDT");

const expectedOutput = parseFloat(inputAmount) * parseFloat(quote.estPrice);
const feePercent = parseFloat(quote.edge.pair.LastConfig.takerFeePercent);
const netOutput = expectedOutput * (1 - feePercent / 100);

console.log(`You will receive approximately ${netOutput} USDT`);

​
Error Handling

The quote endpoint includes fallback to mock data on errors:
  • If authentication fails, returns cached or mock data
  • If network request fails, logs warning and uses fallback data
  • Query is disabled if userId, tokenFrom, or tokenTo are missing
