What is PENDAX?

A Javascript library allowing simplified interaction with advanced commands on a growing list of cryptocurrency exchanges and financial applications.

PENDAX provides simplified exchange commands and interoperability. Our underlying high-frequency trading engine, PENDAX, will be available for all developers, traders, financial analysts, and data scientists to build custom integrations on. It provides simple access to a variety of different use cases revolving around trading and data deployments.

We will explore full usage capabilities below, however, PENDAX can best be summarized using the following points:

Full Public and Private HTTP REST APIs for all supported platforms are integrated in an efficient manner for secondary deployment.
Aggregated commands are normalized between systems in the unified package making PENDAX extremely easy to integrate.
WebSocket and live data capabilities are included for all supported exchanges and platforms.
No subscription is needed for a “Professional” version of PENDAX. All commands and capabilities are free to use for all developers, traders, and integrators.

PENDAX Capability Overview

PENDAX consists of both public and private integrations. A public integration can be accessed immediately after integration and provides unrestricted access to data for all supported exchange markets and integrations without an API key. Private integrations feature the ability to interact with an account or post trades and require authorization methods in order to complete command tasks. Users will need to create an API key on their selected exchange.

Public API Capabilities

Public APIs provide immediate and unrestricted access to the following commands without the need for authorization.

Fetch all market pairs from each integrated platform and exchange
Fetch tickers and trading parameters for all market pairs
Live and historical price feeds and exchange rates for each market pair
Live order book data for each market pair
Fetch trade history for all market pairs
Live and historical charting capabilities utilizing trading data
Other supported public endpoints for individual exchanges outside of this list

Private API Capabilities

Authorized commands provide the ability to interact with trade orders, account data, and more. As mentioned before you will need to generate an API key from the selected exchange and then insert the authorization parameters into PENDAX to access these commands.

Fetch and manage personal account information
Create and edit subaccounts associated with the main account on supported exchanges
Query account and subaccount balances
Ability to deposit and withdraw from accounts and subaccounts
Query current orders and historical personal orders
Fetch personal ledger history for accounts and subaccounts
Transfer funds between exchanges, accounts, and subaccounts
Trade with all supported order types on supported exchanges
Trade on all supported markets on supported exchanges
Open and manage WebSockets on supported exchanges

Availability And PENDAX Release

PENDAX will be released as an SDK in npm format for simplified integration for developers and custom integrations. We will also be offering a hosted API to interact with PENDAX in an even simpler manner for integrations that do not require full npm functionality. Modules and the API will be released shortly as we finalize the debugging and auditing phases to ensure a competent release pattern. A Github Repo will also be established in parallel to provide example code snippets for utilizing PENDAX in live settings.

Our full focus for PENDAX was creating the most intuitive integration platform in existence. Competitive packages can require hundreds of lines of code to establish unique functions a trader or developer may be looking to integrate while PENDAX comparatively takes only a handful. Another goal with PENDAX is to provide the most in-depth documentation available for troubleshooting and integration efficiency.

Did you know? The best way to showcase a product is to build on it! The new system upgrade for our consumer-facing application, Compendium.Fi, is built utilizing PENDAX in parallel with a state-of-the-art load balancing system to ensure industry-leading trading performance.

What is Compendium Finance?

The Compendium.Fi platform is built to offer traders a comprehensive suite of tools for a list of growing ecosystems. Our consumer-facing application is split into two separate entities.

One side of our trading tools focuses on integrations with popular and liquid centralized exchanges, while the other side focuses on improving the on-chain trading offerings of decentralized protocols built on Solana (with more chains to come shortly).

Automation and simplicity are key to all of our offerings. We’re here to help make crypto trading easier for everyone. Subscribe to bots, make your own, copy friends, or manually trade across multiple ecosystems in our intelligent interfaces.
