Introduction

Data sources are necessary for MantaRisk to perform analytics. They provide the engine with the reference and pricing data it requires to operate. Our users can:

• Use our built-in data sources which, with the exception of Fixed Income, are all included as part of our standard package;
• Push their own data into our platform and perform analytics on it; and
• Plug external data sources onto our platform (on request).

Built-in Data Sources

Our built-in data source covers over 667,000 instruments in 178 exchanges across the world as well as 900,000 bonds. We cover the following asset classes:

• Stocks
• Forex
• Crypto
• ETFs
• Funds
• Fixed Income (separate fee applies)
• Options / Warrants
• Commodities ETFs/Indices (e.g., DBC, Gold) and futures proxies
• Money Market & Cash

User Data Feed

The User Feed data source operates differently to the built-in data sources in that it allows you to feed MantaRisk your own instrument and price data.

To use this feature, you will need an API account and an API key - see Getting Started for more information.

With that you can start pushing your data into MantaRisk using our /history endpoints:

Notes:

1. The instrument codes (instrument_code) used must be unique for each instrument.
2. The apiid associated with your account can be found using the /history/api endpoint.
3. MantaRisk can provide you a view of what data is already stored using the /history GET endpoint thus enabling you to "top-up" only what is necessary.
