Upbit WebSocket API

The Upbit WebSocket API delivers real-time streaming data for market and account events. Public streams include live tickers, full orderbook updates, OHLCV candles, and trade feeds for any trading pair. Authenticated streams provide personal order and trade fill notifications and asset balance change events, enabling reactive trading systems. JWT bearer token authentication is required for personal (private) streams. Clients can list active subscriptions to monitor and manage connections.
