Product roadmap

Historical and live market news.

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.

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.

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.

National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) data.

Stocks and derivatives data from the Singapore Exchange (SGX)

Securities and futures data.

Macroeconomic data releases, such as: Jobs Inflation, e.g. CPI FOMC

Kalshi is a regulated exchange where you can trade on the outcome of real world events: https://kalshi.com/

At present, there is no mechanism through which a customer can cancel a batch download request once that request has been submitted. This ticket is to track the release of a feature that would allow customers to cancel batch download requests if those requests have not yet been completed.

Apart from CME/Comex the most important exchanges for metals (prices, inventory, warehouse movements etc) are: LME, LBMA, SHFE, Dalian, and for all recycled commodities it is Davis Index. It would be a massive help if you can provide even just end of day data with historical data from these platforms to start with. Live feeds and delayed feeds are obvious next steps but EOD data would be a massive first step.

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.

Currently, equities is supported via individual prop feeds of each venue. While NASDAQ is sufficient for getting NBBO for most of the time, some users prefer something that will be more in line with actual NBBO from SIPs. This feature request tracks 3 possible modes of consolidation for both historical and live data: Databento server-side consolidation of multiple proprietary feeds Consolidated data from proprietary feed like Nasdaq Basic in lieu of SIP Consolidated data from CTA/UTP SIPs We plan on implementing 1-2 of these three options.

To extend support to browser-based applications.

Support Parquet as a form of encoding, aside from dbn, CSV and JSON.
