WebSocketStocks & Equities

Polygon.io (Massive) Stocks WebSocket

Polygon.io (Massive) Stocks WebSocket is a websocket from Polygon.io / Massive providing stocks & equities data. Push WebSocket stream of real-time US-equity market data — tick trades, NBBO quotes, and per-second/per-minute OHLC aggregates across all 19 US exchanges, dark pools and OTC. A Polymarket bot can subscribe to TSLA/SPX-component prints and instantly evaluate whether the underlying is above a strike for "will close above $X" markets. Note: Polygon.io rebranded to Massive in late 2025; polygon.io 301-redirects to massive.com.
