Novig publishes every executed trade in its free daily trades.csv, starting 3 Aug 2026, a day late and without names. The official API streams the tape live for account holders. novigapi.com serves the same trades with market names through /trades, about 18.7 million rows on 15 Nov 2026. (Source: [Novig docs: Exchange Data](https://docs.novig.com/public-data/overview.md))

Trades tell you where money actually moved, which matters more than a quote on thin markets. Novig's CSV writes one row per side of each fill, with no trader identity.

On novigapi.com, /trades pages newest first and filters by market and time, so you can read the last hour of a player's props without downloading a day's file.

## Where novigapi.com falls short

> Trades are a history read: 3 credits per 100 rows, and Free keys see only the last 7 days. A full-season download is cheaper from the CSVs, which are free.

## Questions

### Do Novig trades show who traded?

No. Novig's public files identify no trader, wallet or order, and neither does novigapi.com.

### How fresh are trades on novigapi.com?

Novig's public edge caches trades for 5 seconds; paid REST data is at most about 10 seconds old.
