dYdX Perpetual Tracker — 290+ Markets, Funding, OI, Volume

What does dYdX Perpetual Tracker do?

dYdX Perpetual Tracker pulls live dYdX trading data for all 290+ active markets on the dYdX v4 Cosmos appchain — including oracle prices, 24h volume, open interest, and funding rates — via the fully public dYdX v4 API. No API key, no registration, and no proxy required. As the most comprehensive dYdX perpetual tracker on Apify, it ranks markets by volume, price gain, or funding rate magnitude so you can instantly surface the most active and highest-carry decentralized perpetuals in a single flat-rate run. Because dYdX v4 is fully on-chain, all order book data is transparent and public — making it a uniquely reliable source for DEX derivatives intelligence.

Why use dYdX Perpetual Tracker?

dYdX trading data is on-chain and public, but aggregating 290+ markets into a ranked, structured feed requires direct API work. This actor does that in seconds for a flat $0.005.

• Funding rate arbitrage — compare dYdX funding rates against Binance, OKX, and Bybit to identify positive carry opportunities across CEX/DEX spreads
• Altcoin perp discovery — find high-volume perpetual markets available on dYdX but not yet listed on major CEXs, giving earlier access to emerging assets
• DEX market health monitoring — track open interest and 24h volume trends across all dYdX markets to gauge decentralized derivatives activity over time
• Quant strategy signals — feed oracle prices and annualized funding APR into quantitative models as clean structured JSON with no parsing overhead
• Research and reporting — benchmark dYdX market depth and activity against centralized exchanges for academic or institutional research
