dYdX Markets Scraper
Scrape dYdX perpetual markets with open interest, funding rates, and 24h volume in one flat dataset. Filter by ticker or grab every market, up to a million rows per run. No API key, no login. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
dYdX's official API needs an account, API keys, and rate limits that slow you down. This reads the public market data directly and returns each perpetual market as one row with its ticker, oracle price, open interest, funding rate, and 24h volume. Filter by ticker or pull the full list, then export it anywhere.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check your tickerFilter. If you passed a ticker that does not exist on dYdX, the result will be empty. Leave the filter empty to get all markets.
Why did I only get 10 markets?
Free users are limited to 10 items as a preview. Upgrade to a paid plan and set maxItems higher to get more markets.
The run failed with a timeout.
dYdX's public API can be slow during high traffic. Try reducing maxItems or adding a ticker filter to limit the number of requests.
Some fields are missing or null.
dYdX may not have data for every field on every market. Null values are normal for markets with no recent activity.
Can I get historical data?
This scraper returns current market data only. For historical data, you would need to run it on a schedule and store the results over time.
