Markets

Overview

The MarketFetcher handles market discovery, individual market lookups, user-order lookup, and orderbook retrieval. It also caches venue contract addresses used by the order-signing flow.

Setup

use limitless_exchange_rust_sdk::Client;

let client = Client::new()?;

// Access through the root client
let markets = client.markets.clone();

Fetching Active Markets

Use get_active_markets() to retrieve a paginated list of active markets:

use limitless_exchange_rust_sdk::{ActiveMarketsParams, ActiveMarketsSortBy, Client};

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let client = Client::new()?;

    let result = client
        .markets
        .get_active_markets(Some(&ActiveMarketsParams {
            page: Some(1),
            limit: Some(10),
            sort_by: Some(ActiveMarketsSortBy::Liquidity),
        }))
        .await?;

    for market in result.data {
        println!("{} {}", market.title, market.slug);
    }

    Ok(())
}

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
`page`	`Option<u32>`	`None`	Page number for pagination
`limit`	`Option<u32>`	`None`	Number of markets per page
`sort_by`	`Option<ActiveMarketsSortBy>`	`None`	Sort order

Sort options

Variant	Description
`ActiveMarketsSortBy::LpRewards`	Sort by LP rewards
`ActiveMarketsSortBy::EndingSoon`	Sort by markets ending soonest
`ActiveMarketsSortBy::Newest`	Sort by newest markets
`ActiveMarketsSortBy::HighValue`	Sort by highest value
`ActiveMarketsSortBy::Liquidity`	Sort by liquidity

Fetching a Single Market

Use get_market() to retrieve full details for a specific market:

let market = client
    .markets
    .get_market("btc-above-100k-march-2025")
    .await?;

println!("{}", market.title);

if let Some(tokens) = market.tokens.as_ref() {
    println!("YES token: {}", tokens.yes);
    println!("NO token: {}", tokens.no);
}

if let Some(venue) = market.venue.as_ref() {
    println!("Exchange: {}", venue.exchange);
}

market.tokens and market.venue are optional in the Rust models, so unwrap them only after checking they are present.

Fetching the Orderbook

Use get_order_book() to retrieve bids and asks for a market:

let orderbook = client
    .markets
    .get_order_book("btc-above-100k-march-2025")
    .await?;

for bid in &orderbook.bids {
    println!("bid {} {}", bid.price, bid.size);
}

for ask in &orderbook.asks {
    println!("ask {} {}", ask.price, ask.size);
}

println!("midpoint {}", orderbook.adjusted_midpoint);

Fetching User Orders

Use get_user_orders() to retrieve your orders on a market. This requires authentication:

let orders = client
    .markets
    .get_user_orders("btc-above-100k-march-2025")
    .await?;

for order in orders {
    println!("{} {:?} {:?}", order.id, order.price, order.filled_size);
}

You can also call it from a fetched Market instance:

let market = client.markets.get_market("btc-above-100k-march-2025").await?;
let orders = market.get_user_orders().await?;

Venue Caching

Every call to get_market() caches the market venue (exchange and adapter addresses). The OrderClient reads from this cache when resolving the correct EIP-712 verifying contract.

Fetch the market

Calling get_market() retrieves and caches the venue:

let market = client.markets.get_market("btc-above-100k-march-2025").await?;

Check the cache

Access the cached venue directly:

if let Some(venue) = client.markets.get_venue("btc-above-100k-march-2025") {
    println!("exchange {}", venue.exchange);
}

Place an order

The OrderClient will use the cached venue for signing:

let private_key = std::env::var("PRIVATE_KEY")?;
let order_client = client.new_order_client(&private_key, None)?;

let market = client.markets.get_market("btc-above-100k-march-2025").await?;
let tokens = market.tokens.as_ref().expect("market tokens");

let response = order_client
    .create_order(limitless_exchange_rust_sdk::CreateOrderParams {
        order_type: limitless_exchange_rust_sdk::OrderType::Gtc,
        market_slug: market.slug.clone(),
        args: limitless_exchange_rust_sdk::GtcOrderArgs {
            token_id: tokens.yes.clone(),
            side: limitless_exchange_rust_sdk::Side::Buy,
            price: 0.65,
            size: 10.0,
            expiration: None,
            nonce: None,
            taker: None,
            post_only: false,
        }
        .into(),
    })
    .await?;

println!("{}", response.order.id);

Calling get_market() before create_order() is still the recommended pattern. The Rust SDK will fetch venue data on demand if the cache is empty, but prefetching avoids an extra API roundtrip.
