  1. Real-time and historical index data

    Currently, indices are indirectly supported through tradable index instruments on CME futures, ETFs, etc. and we don't provide the index values (non-tradable) themselves. This may be sourced from a feed like the Cboe Global Indices Feed or NYSE Global Index Feed.

  2. Binance data (cryptocurrency spot, futures, options)

    We've received some requests recently for Binance data. Please upvote if this is of interest. We're still determining whether this is worth the risk.

  3. Add dark mode

    Original request from Juan Linares: "Great product but please add dark mode." There are two separate parts to this: Dark mode for the portal and main website (databento.com, databento.com/portal) Dark mode for the docs We can consider this only after Q1 2025 since we're doing a major rebranding of our website which is expected to finish by early April 2025. The new colors will make it easier for us to implement a dark mode.

  6. Include OPRA trade conditions

    It would be helpful if OPRA trade conditions were included in the normalized schemas. This is useful information that's currently lost during normalization. Also include the "message type" of each last sale message. Similar to: https://roadmap.databento.com/roadmap/us-equity-trade-condition-codes

  7. Add Polars support to `to_df` method

    Could we add support to make the result of DBNStore.to_df a Polars dataframe as well? Perhaps the function signature could just be overloaded with a to_polars: bool argument. Something like: In Python @overload def to_df(self, to_polars: Literal[False]) -> pd.DataFrame: ... @overload def to_df(self, to_polars: Literal[True]) -> pl.DataFrame: ... Or, maybe to_df is split into two different functions to_pandas and to_polars. Either way, it would be helpful to avoid having to do pl.from_pandas(store.to_df().reset_index(drop=False)). Plus, Polars can convert to pyarrow-Pandas zero-copy, but not the other way around.

  8. Provide implied book on CME Globex MDP 3.0

    Databento's feed is based on CME's MBO feed and we do not overlay implied depth from the MBP feed. This creates the appearance of less liquidity and wider spreads compared to many vendors that are only using the MBP feed. Overlaying MBO and MBP creates several complications; we think using the direct book is better for signal generation and execution, and prefer not overlay implied MBP over MBO to form a composite book. At this time, users who are sensitive to implied orders can impute the implied book themselves. That said, we may expose the implied book for users who find this useful and prefer to compare our data to another reference.

  10. Improved EOD support

    A schema to encompass useful EOD information in various forms. Currently, users have to extract EOD prices from ohlcv-1d. However, this is aligned to UTC midnight. Users who want EOD data based on session end or other specific conventions, e.g. 3:45 PM ET (to avoid auction) have to extract this from ohlcv-1h or ohlcv-1m data. This could be provided either in the form of a new endpoint, new schema (e.g. 'ohlcv-eod' or 'eod'), or more session/market calendar functionality.

  14. Hi Databento Team,Need clarification: Still getting "Not authorized" for GLBX.MDP3 Live after upgrading to PLUS. What is the root cause?

    Hi Databento Team, I recently upgraded to the PLUS plan because I was trying to access CME Globex (GLBX.MDP3) Live MBO/MBP-10 data and was receiving "Not authorized" errors. However, even after the upgrade and confirming that "Live data" is Active on my portal, I am still getting the exact same API connection errors: Not authorized for mbo schema Not authorized for mbp-10 schema This situation raises a few concerns for me, and I would like your team to clarify: Did your sales/support team misunderstand my needs? > Was the Standard plan actually sufficient for receiving Live GLBX.MDP3 MBO data as a Non-Professional user? What is the EXACT root cause? > If the plan upgrade wasn't the solution, what is actually blocking my API key? Is there a pending manual compliance review, a missing CME Click-Through Agreement, or an incorrect configuration on your backend? My system is fully built and tested, and I am just waiting on your side to unlock the data stream. Please investigate my account and let me know the true cause of this issue and how we can fix it immediately. Thank you,

  15. Trading calendar information

    This feature would allow the user to request trading calendar information (such as trading session start/end times) via our API. This is especially useful when considering trading sessions that can span multiple UTC dates (and hence the possibility of having multiple trading sessions within a single day). Keywords: Market calendar, trading holidays.
