WebSocket API Introduction

WebSocket protocol is a new TCP-based network protocol. It enables the full-duplex communication of single TCP connection between client and server, the server sends singals to clients actively, which reduces the unnecessary expenses on frequent identity verifications. The greatest two advantages:

• The header data requested by double sides are small, which is about only 2 Bytes.
• Server will not return data passively after receiving the request of clients any more, it will send the new data to clients actively.

The advantages of the above WebSocket protocol is very appropriate for cryptocurrencies market and trading real-time interface.

Attention: WebSocket only supports market viewing, trading interface will be provided later.
