# Recent trades on a market

> Newest first. By default served from the in-memory cache, which holds the most recent fills and is fast. Pass `source=clickhouse` for historical depth beyond the cache, at higher latency.



## OpenAPI

````yaml /openapi.json get /v1/markets/{address}/trades
openapi: 3.0.3
info:
  description: >-
    REST API for the Archer Exchange — a high-performance Solana-based order
    book exchange.


    All monetary values (prices, sizes, fees) are returned as decimal strings
    for precision.


    ### Rate Limiting

    All endpoints are rate-limited via a token-bucket algorithm. When the limit
    is exceeded, the API returns `429 Too Many Requests`.


    ### Error Format

    All errors follow a consistent JSON format:

    ```json

    {
      "error": "ERROR_CODE",
      "message": "Human-readable description"
    }

    ```


    ### Handling errors

    Every error falls into one of five actions. REST errors come back as
    `{"error": CODE, "message"}`. A transaction that fails on-chain reports
    `{"InstructionError": [index, {"Custom": code}]}`; codes are the `errors`
    list of the program IDL (`archer-sdk/idl/archer_v1.json`). When a build
    endpoint's preflight catches an on-chain error first, it returns `400
    INVALID_PARAMS` with the reason in `message`.


    | Action | REST | On-chain (code) |

    |---|---|---|

    | **Retry as is**, with backoff | `RATE_LIMITED` (429),
    `SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE` (503), `INTERNAL_ERROR` (500); relay `OVERLOADED`,
    `PREFLIGHT_UNAVAILABLE`. Keep backing off on 429: 50 of them within a minute
    from one IP returns `BANNED` (403) for 10 minutes | none |

    | **Refetch, rebuild, retry**: the book or registry changed under you | |
    `LevelSizeMismatch` (527), `StaleSequenceNumber` (509),
    `SequenceNumberTooFarAhead` (522), `RegistryBooksMismatch` (525),
    `IncompleteMakerBooks` (513), `NoMatchingLiquidity` (507); relay status
    `expired` (re-sign with a fresh blockhash) |

    | **Reprice** | `CROSSES_SPREAD`, `SLIPPAGE_EXCEEDED` | `PostOnlyWouldCross`
    (524), `CrossingOrderLevels` (505), `InvalidPrice` (503),
    `SlippageToleranceExceeded` (703) |

    | **Resize** | `INSUFFICIENT_LIQUIDITY` (the body's `availableSize` is what
    fits) | `MakerBookSideFull` (528: cancel a level first),
    `InvalidSizeAtLevel` (506), `InsufficientBalance` (402) and SPL Token `1`
    (fund the account or shrink), `ZeroSwapAmount` (702) |

    | **Stop**: fix the request or the setup; retrying cannot help |
    `INVALID_PARAMS`, `MISSING_API_KEY` / `INVALID_API_KEY` (401), `FORBIDDEN`,
    `NOT_FOUND`, `MARKET_NOT_FOUND`, `METHOD_NOT_ALLOWED`; `MARKET_PAUSED` /
    `MARKET_FROZEN` until the market resumes |
    `UnauthorizedArcherAccountDelegate` (1001), `BuilderFeeExceedsAccountCap`
    (1003), `UnauthorizedMaker` (502), `MakerNotRegistered` (512),
    `PostOnlyRequiresLimitOrderBook` (526), `MarketNotActive` (107),
    `MarketFrozen` (114); any 200–399 code (wrong account wiring, a bug to
    report) |
