btc-e price quotes throught api

Question

Can anyone give me the API details on how to access the prices quotes shown on home page of BTC-E.com.

the api link on the site does not provide details on how to access bid and ask prices.

Answer 1

You can get any price quotes, in a JSON format, using these kinds of endpoints:

• https://btc-e.com/api/2/ltc_usd/ticker
• https://btc-e.com/api/2/btc_usd/ticker
• https://btc-e.com/api/2/ltc_btc/ticker

The structure of the endpoint is https://btc-e.com/api/2 and then currency_currency and then /ticker.

Hope that helps!

Answer 2

Here are more options to access data:

https://btc-e.com/api/2/btc_usd/depth

https://btc-e.com/api/2/btc_usd/trades

Answer 3

The FAQ page at btc-e.com has a FAQ called "API" at the bottom. If you click it, it opens a list of items which, though BTC-e could change things at any time, so it's a good idea to visit that URL anyway, currently says:
