Nord Pool Intraday Trading API

WebSocket API for continuous intraday power trading - clients speak STOMP over secure WebSocket (port 443) to parallel Market Data and Trading services for streaming contracts, order books, and capacities, and for order entry and private execution reports. A newer binary PMD v2 feed uses Protocol Buffers over WebSockets. Free to use but only for onboarded Nord Pool trading customers; channel names in the AsyncAPI are modeled from public GitHub examples.

Nord Pool Intraday Trading API is one of 10 APIs that Nord Pool publishes on the APIs.io network, described by an AsyncAPI event-driven specification.

Tagged areas include Intraday Trading, WebSocket, STOMP, and Order Entry. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation, a GitHub repository, and an AsyncAPI specification.

This event API exposes 7 operations across 7 channels, and defines 7 schemas. It is described by AsyncAPI 2.6.0, at version 1.0.

The API connects through 2 servers: wss://{marketDataHost} (stomp), wss://{tradingHost} (stomp).
