Hey everyone, I keep track of my crypto portfolio via google drive on sheets and import a lot of live current price information from coinmarketcap.com API’s that I then play around with.
However, I do most of my trading on Binance so would really like to use their information. Does anyone know the link, such as the below, to get the Binance price information from their API’s?

Thanks for the help in advance!

The basis of any trading strategy is having a good backtesting solution, and you can't backtest unless you have data.
In this post I'm going to step through how to download and save historical data from the Binance API over a given timeframe.
This example does not require an account on [Binance][binance] as it utilises public API calls.
### Working with dates
It's convenient to be able to pass human readable dates, unfortunately the Binance server only understands millisecond timestamps
so we need to convert our date.
This can be done by using helper websites like [current millis][current-millis] but we've got the power of python so let's use it.
First install the `dateparser` package

Thanks for the link and recommendation Crypto_J! I’ll have to take a look and see if I can figure this out.
