MMT Market Data

MMT is Market Lab's multi-venue market-data provider for source, study, strategy, and script commands.

Website:

• mmt.gg

Symbol Normalization

Market Lab accepts symbols such as:

• BTC/USDT
• HYPE/USDT

MMT expects quotes usd, so Market Lab normalizes symbols before sending requests.

Example:

• app input: BTC/USDT
• MMT request symbol: btc/usd

Time Units

Market Lab uses milliseconds internally and at the CLI boundary.

MMT range endpoints accept Unix seconds.

Market Lab converts:

• app ms
• to MMT s
• then normalizes returned timestamps back to ms

That means you should think in milliseconds when using Market Lab commands.

Current Scope

At the moment, the docs and command examples assume:

• --provider mmt

BULK public market data, market-rule lookup, and agent-wallet authorization are also available. BULK currently connects through source commands rather than built-in studies, strategies, or scripts. See BULK Provider.

Source Behavior

Current MMT-backed source commands:

• source orderbook
• source candles
• source vd
• source oi
• source volumes

Streaming behavior differs by source:

• orderbook: websocket depth updates
• candles: websocket candle updates
• vd: websocket candle-like volume delta updates
• oi: websocket open interest OHLC updates
• volumes: websocket volume profile updates

Study Behavior

Current MMT-backed studies use either:

• live orderbook snapshots
• websocket orderbook streams
• range candle or VD requests

Examples:

• slippage, spread, depth, imbalance, vamp: live orderbook-driven
• cvd: VD-driven
• strategy run/backtest sma-crossover: candles-driven
• script backtest: candles-driven when script.source is candles

Script Runtime Reports

Script runs and backtests write local runtime reports to:

~/.market-lab/runs

Use:

mlab script runs list

mlab script runs show <run-id>

Stream Validation Rules

Market Lab rejects confusing flag combinations.

Examples:

• source candles --stream rejects --from/--to
• source vd --stream rejects --from/--to
• source oi --stream rejects --from/--to
• source volumes --stream rejects --from/--to
• study cvd --stream rejects --from/--to
• strategy run sma-crossover allows optional --from warmup
• strategy backtest sma-crossover requires --from and --to
• script backtest requires --from and --to
