Important

The Jock MKT Api does not display all results for many of the endpoints by default. In order to display more results, the user has to implement pagination. It can be done so as follows:

Paginating Results

any endpoint that has start and limit as keywords will require pagination

paginating request results using for statement, generating a list of all NBA Entities.

nba_entities = []
for i in range(10):
    nba_entities.extend(client.get_entities(start=i, limit=100, league='nba'))

Note

We use .extend rather than .append on the list so we are not appending new lists to a list, but generating one list of all nba entities.

Dealing with order rate limits

Note

Since you are limited to 10 orders per minute, you must limit how you place orders.

from datetime import datetime
import time

#Option 1:
for order in orders:
    client.place_order(tradeable_id, price, side, phase, qty)
    time.sleep(6)

#Option 2:
counter = 0
for order in orders:
    client.place_order(tradeable_id, price, side, phase, qty)
    counter += 1

    if counter == 10:
        counter = 0
        time.sleep(60)

#Option 3:
counter = 0
for order in orders:
    client.place_order(tradeable_id, price, side, phase, qty)
    counter += 1

    if counter == 10:
        counter = 0
        sleeptime = 60.1 - datetime.now().second
        time.sleep(sleeptime)
        print(sleeptime)
