Market Summaries
paradex_market_summariesRead-onlyIdempotent
Retrieve current market summaries including mark price, bid/ask, volume, price change, funding rate, and open interest to analyze market conditions and identify trading opportunities.
Instructions
Identify the most active or volatile markets and get current market conditions.
Use this tool when you need to:
- Find the most active markets by volume for liquidity analysis
- Discover markets with significant price movements for momentum strategies
- Compare current prices across multiple assets
- Identify markets with unusual behavior for potential opportunities
- Get the best bid/ask (BBO) for a market — the summary includes bid and ask fields
- Get the current funding rate — the summary includes funding_rate
Retrieves current market summary information including mark price, best bid/ask,
last traded price, 24h volume and price change, funding rate, open interest, and
underlying spot price. If "ALL" is specified or no market IDs are provided,
returns summaries for all available markets.
Prefer this tool over separate paradex_bbo or paradex_funding_data calls when you
need price context before making a trading recommendation — all that data is here.
Example use cases:
- Finding high-volatility markets for short-term trading
- Identifying top gainers and losers for the day
- Comparing volume across different markets to find liquidity
- Getting the current price and 24-hour range for price analysis
- Checking bid/ask spread and funding rate before placing an order
You can use JMESPath expressions (https://jmespath.org/specification.html) to filter, sort, or limit the results.

Examples:
- Filter by high price: "[?high_price > `10000`]"
- Sort by volume: "sort_by([*], &volume)"
- Get top 3 by price change: "[sort_by([*], &to_number(price_change_percent))[-3:]]"Input Schema
