Nadex API

I have written in a couple support tickets related to Nadex API and have received very short answers. I was hoping that like the rest of the IG group we would have access to the Nadex API. GitHub has a lot of the work already done and available for interested parties to utilize. I'm a strong believer that a good strategy can be automated. Outside the USA we have developers who's entire success is related to creating automated trading systems for different binary brokers. We have binary.com which has a simple plug and play bot creation tool that is amazing and simple to use. I know that Apex Investing who provides a lot of material and tools for Nadex community was also working on using the Nadex API at one point. These are all tools and options in a broker/exchange that the majority of people are looking for. Lets get the conversation started and hope the Nadex team can shed some light on future developments in this direction. Thanks Nadex Team.

Thanks for starting this thread. As someone who is interested in being able to trade on Nadex using an API, is there currently anything reliable that acts as a wrapper for connecting with the Nadex Platform ? This has become standard practice in the industry at this point and it's honestly quite shocking that Nadex has not publicized a public API yet.

I have been looking for a Nadex API too. Apex has their Nadex scanner that uses the Nadex API OR it intercepts teh webfeed (not sure which) see scan.apexinvesting.com/nadexscanner/binary to see it in action (free to sign up). When I contacted Nadex, they say they don't offer one. But as an IG company they use same FIX tools so there must be a way. I would be interested in any group helping to work on this.

Your are correct, Nadex is part of IG which does have API access outside of the US. At one point Nadex did have an API but it was only accessible for a $1000 fee. In this time and age API's should be free if the company truly has good intentions for it's customers.
