Quotes Channel

The Quote channel is where ALL quotes (limit orders) and state changes to the orderbook can be found. Additionally, quotes from an RFQ request can also be retrieved here.

Filter Message (Quotes)

All channels require a filter message prior to streaming. Filter messages will define what data is streamed along with activating the stream itself. There are several parameters that can be used to refine the stream.

chainId (Required) : Designate whether the stream is for a production chain or testnet chain

poolAddress (Optional): filter by specific option market

side (Optional): filter by either bid only or ask only

size (Optional): filter by minimum size

The size parameter must be represented in a string that is in 10^18 format. For example, if the filter for size is mean to be 2, then value here must be '2000000000000000000'.

provider (Optional): filter by quote providers

taker (Optional): filter by taker address is IMPORTANT for RFQ network users. There are 3 ways to configure this:

1. omit: if this filter param is omitted, then only public quotes will stream. If there is no intention of using the RFQ network, omit this filter.

2. address: if the intention is to use the RFQ network to request quotes, populate this field with the wallet address of the requester to see all relevant PostQuote messages from quote providers

3. * -> if the intention is to use the RFQ network to provide/request quotes, populate this field with a star to see all relevant FillQuote messages.
