Short Interest

Live Short Interest

API to retrieve the live intraday short-interest estimate snapshot for a given ticker on a given exchange.

Returns a single current record combining the daily short-interest estimate baseline (daily SI shares and % of free float), the live short-interest estimate (live SI shares, % of free float, and the change vs the daily baseline in shares and percent), and the live cost to borrow (liveCtbAverage -- the ORTEX composite, seeded from the daily ORTEX CTB and kept live through the trading day, converging to the daily value by close; null when not yet set). Timestamps are UTC, second precision.

Returns 404 when the stock has no live record currently available.

Try it out! You can test the API with the trial key TEST. Simply include it in your request headers; either here, or add the header "Ortex-Api-Key": "TEST" to your http request.

Trial key restrictions: A list of randomly selected rows will be returned
