CBIX Review

www.cbix.ca
CBIX provides price and market data related to Bitcoin priced in Canadian dollars. The website has an index which displays the Bitcoin price in Canadian dollars and is derived from a number of exchanges. Users can also get information on the price on different exchanges along with an overall summary of the market and daily changes. TradingView software is used if users would like to view the price on a chart and use technical analysis tools. The data is also exportable via an API. There are a number of different API functions and the documentation is on the website. The API is available only through REST. There was also HTTP and Websocket but they have been discontinued.
Bitcoin news which is in some way related to Canada can also be viewed on the website. There is also an orderbook which consolidates the top 250 bids and orders from Canadian Dollar exchanges. There are also a number of other tools which include price alert set-up, a volatility metric, a calculator, live trades, exchange statistics, and market capitalization.
This service is a tailored service which provides a lot of value to traders and business people who will be dealing with Bitcoin priced in Canadian dollars and are interested in the Canadian ecosystem for cryptocurrencies. It does not have much applicability outside of the Bitcoin and Canada but is a valuable resource nonetheless.
