Difference between KLine and Continuous Contract Kline Streams

API Futures API

Hi, I’m a bit confused about the difference between these two streams:

#kline-candlestick-streams


#continuous-contract-kline-candlestick-streams

Any clarification is welcome
Thanks !

The difference is that the first is for spot / margin and the second is for futures

your answer is wrong and confusing :slight_smile:

Thanks! maybe the docs need some cleanup then, because even when selecting the option for USD or COIN Futures is showing the stream for #kline-candlestick-streams

The difference is in how you call the stream, one uses another <symbol> while another uses <pair>_<contractType> (obtain this info by querying /fapi/v1/exchangeInfo), this is to support different users’s preferences.

this is the right response. Thanks.
