    1. Basically, a trade happens when a market or stop order meets a limit order.

      “side” means the action from the “taker” (the guy who buy/sell with a market order or with a stop order).

      So if somebody clicks on “buy at market price”, then “side” will be “buy”, and if somebody clicks on “sell at market price”, then “side” will be “sell”.

      1. I’m not sure about Kraken, but for GDAX, “side” refers to the maker order and not the taker order (see https://docs.gdax.com/#get-trades), so it is actually the reverse of what you describe. If “side” is “buy”, then the maker order was a buy and the taker order was a sell.

        Thank you for publishing this data and the code for obtaining it!

    1. Yes these are all executed trades. Nope sorry no spread or highest bids/lowest asks for this script and data… But I plan to build a script which log all orders book in real time too 🙂
