- ✅ **Color-coded indicators** (green/red based on price movement)
### 3. **WebSocket Features**
- ✅ **Auto-connect** on page load
- ✅ **Auto-reconnect** if connection drops (5-second delay)
- ✅ **Heartbeat/Ping** every 30 seconds to keep connection alive
- ✅ **Error handling** with console logging
- ✅ **Multiple pair subscriptions** simultaneously
## Technical Details
### WebSocket URL

## Data Mapping
| Display Field | API Field | Format | Example |
|---------------|-----------|--------|---------|
| Price | `tick.usd` or `tick.latest` | Number (2 decimals) | 307.35 |
| Change % | `tick.change` | Percentage (2 decimals) | +0.74% |
| Timestamp | `TS` or current time | ISO 8601 | 2026-01-19 17:15:30 UTC |
## UI Elements
### HTML Structure
```html
2026-01-19 17:15:30 UTC
```
### JavaScript Class Structure
```javascript
class LBankWebSocket {
constructor() // Initialize WebSocket
connect() // Connect to WebSocket server
subscribeToPairs() // Subscribe to BNB, MATIC, SOL
startPing() // Start heartbeat (30s interval)
stopPing() // Stop heartbeat
handleMessage(data) // Process incoming messages
updateMarketData() // Update UI with new prices
}
```
## Connection Flow
```
1. Page Loads
↓
2. DOMContentLoaded Event
↓
3. Initialize LBankWebSocket
↓
4. Connect to wss://www.lbkex.net/ws/V2/
↓
5. WebSocket Opens
↓
6. Subscribe to bnb_usdt, matic_usdt, sol_usdt
↓
7. Start Ping Interval (30s)
↓
8. Receive Tick Messages
↓
9. Update UI with Real-Time Data
↓
10. If Disconnected → Auto-Reconnect (5s delay)
```
## Error Handling
### Connection Errors
- **Auto-reconnect** after 5 seconds
- **Console logging** for debugging
- **Graceful degradation** (shows "--" if no data)
### Message Parsing Errors
- **Try-catch** blocks around JSON parsing
- **Error logging** to console
- **Continues operation** without crashing
### Ping/Pong Timeout
- **Automatic reconnection** if server doesn't respond
- **30-second intervals** to keep connection alive
- **Stops ping** on disconnect to prevent memory leaks
## Console Output
When working correctly, you'll see:
```
🚀 LBank WebSocket initialized
Connecting to LBank WebSocket...
✅ WebSocket connected
📊 Subscribed to bnb_usdt
📊 Subscribed to matic_usdt
📊 Subscribed to sol_usdt
📈 Updated bnb_usdt: $307.35 (+0.74%)
📈 Updated matic_usdt: $0.85 (-1.59%)
📈 Updated sol_usdt: $144.02 (+1.43%)
🏓 Pong received
```
## Testing
### To Verify It's Working:
1. **Open Dashboard**: `http://localhost/frontend/dashboard.php`
2. **Open Browser Console** (F12)
3. **Check for**:
- "✅ WebSocket connected"
- "📊 Subscribed to..." messages
- "📈 Updated..." messages with real prices
4. **Watch UI**: Prices should update from "--" to real values
5. **Check Colors**: Green for positive change, red for negative
### Expected Behavior:
- Prices update within 5-10 seconds of page load
- Timestamp updates with each price change
- Colors change based on 24h price movement
- Connection auto-recovers if interrupted
## Fallback Behavior
If WebSocket fails:
- Shows "--" for prices
- Shows "--%" for changes
- Attempts reconnection every 5 seconds
- Logs errors to console for debugging
## Performance
- **Lightweight**: Only subscribes to 3 pairs
- **Efficient**: Uses WebSocket (not polling)
- **Real-time**: Updates as soon as data arrives
- **Resilient**: Auto-reconnects on failure
## Security
- **WSS Protocol**: Encrypted WebSocket connection
- **No Authentication**: Public market data (no API key needed)
- **Read-Only**: Only subscribes to data, doesn't send trades
## Browser Compatibility
Works in all modern browsers supporting:
- WebSocket API
- ES6 Classes
- Arrow Functions
- Template Literals
Tested in:
- ✅ Chrome/Edge (Chromium)
- ✅ Firefox
- ✅ Safari
- ✅ Opera
## Summary
✅ **Real-time prices** for BNB, MATIC, SOL
✅ **Live 24h change** percentages
✅ **Auto-updating** timestamp
✅ **Color-coded** indicators
✅ **Auto-reconnect** on failure
✅ **Heartbeat** to maintain connection
✅ **Error handling** and logging
✅ **Production-ready** implementation
