The Axiom Pro API provides comprehensive programmatic access to the Axiom Trade platform, enabling developers to build custom trading applications, automated strategies, and integrated services. This documentation covers the core API functionality, authentication methods, and best practices for integration.
Key API Features
RESTful API
Standard HTTP methods for all operations with JSON request/response format. Easy to integrate with any programming language.
Secure Authentication
Token-based authentication with session management. API keys for automated systems with granular permissions.
Real-time Data
WebSocket connections for live market data, order updates, and account changes. Low-latency streaming for high-frequency trading.
High Performance
Optimized for speed with response times under 50ms. Rate limiting designed for professional trading operations.

Authentication
All API requests require authentication using an API key and secret. Include your API key in the request header:
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEYGenerate API keys from your account dashboard. Keep your secret key secure and never share it publicly. Use separate keys for testing and production environments.
Integration Best Practices
- 1.Rate Limiting: Respect rate limits (100 requests/minute for standard endpoints). Use WebSocket connections for real-time data instead of polling.
- 2.Error Handling: Implement proper error handling and retry logic. Check response status codes and handle rate limit errors gracefully.
- 3.Testing: Use the sandbox environment for development and testing. Never test with production API keys or real funds.
- 4.Security: Store API keys securely using environment variables or secure key management systems. Rotate keys regularly and revoke unused keys.
