Integrations

NautilusTrader is designed in a modular way to work with adapters which provide connectivity to trading venues and data providers - converting their raw API into a unified interface. The following integrations are currently supported:

Name	ID	Type	Status	Docs
Betfair	BETFAIR	Sports Betting Exchange		Guide
Binance	BINANCE	Crypto Exchange (CEX)		Guide
Binance US	BINANCE	Crypto Exchange (CEX)		Guide
Binance Futures	BINANCE	Crypto Exchange (CEX)		Guide
Bybit	BYBIT	Crypto Exchange (CEX)
Databento	DATABENTO	Data Provider		Guide
Interactive Brokers	INTERACTIVE_BROKERS	Brokerage (multi-venue)		Guide

• ID: The default client ID for the integrations adapter clients

• Type: The type of integration (often the venue type)

Status

• building - Under construction and likely not in a usable state

• beta - Completed to a minimally working state and in a ‘beta’ testing phase

• stable - Stabilized feature set and API, the integration has been tested by both developers and users to a reasonable level (some bugs may still remain)

Implementation goals

The primary goal of NautilusTrader is to provide a unified trading system for use with a variety of integrations. To support the widest range of trading strategies, priority will be given to ‘standard’ functionality:

• Requesting historical market data

• Streaming live market data

• Reconciling execution state

• Submitting standard order types with standard execution instructions

• Modifying existing orders (if possible on an exchange)

• Canceling orders

The implementation of each integration aims to meet the following criteria:

• Low-level client components should match the exchange API as closely as possible

• The full range of an exchanges functionality (where applicable to NautilusTrader), should eventually be supported

• Exchange specific data types will be added to support the functionality and return types which are reasonably expected by a user

• Actions which are unsupported by either the exchange or NautilusTrader, will be explicitly logged as a warning or error when a user attempts to perform said action

API unification

All integrations must be compatible with the NautilusTrader API at the system boundary, this means there is some normalization and standardization needed.

• All symbols will match the raw/native/local symbol for the exchange, unless there are conflicts (such as Binance using the same symbol for both Spot and Perpetual Futures markets)

• All timestamps will be either normalized to UNIX nanoseconds, or clearly marked as UNIX milliseconds by appending _ms to param and property names
