Get Futures Asset Balance Binance

Question

I tried searching for answers, but to no avail.

How do I get the balance of specific asset for a Futures Asset, for example, USDT?

[{'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'DOT', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'BTC', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'SOL', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'BNB', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'ETH', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'ADA', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'USDT', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'XRP', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'BUSD', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}]

My code:

acc_balance = client.futures_account_balance()
print(acc_balance)
for check_balance in acc_balance["accountAlias"]:
    if check_balance["asset"] == "USDT":
        usdt_balance = check_balance["balance"]

Error:

for check_balance in acc_balance["accountAlias"]:
TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not str

What's the mistake here? Thanks

Answer 1

acc_balance is a list, not a dictionary. You shouldn't index into it using a string.

Fixing this, we get the following:

for check_balance in acc_balance:
    if check_balance["asset"] == "USDT":
        usdt_balance = check_balance["balance"]
        print(usdt_balance) # Prints 0.0000

Answer 2

This means you cannot access your acc_balance list by a str index like "accountAlias". Usually for lists you can only refer to the index by int. However in your case you are using a dictionary in a list

[{'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'DOT', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'BTC', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'SOL', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'BNB', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'ETH', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'ADA', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'USDT', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'XRP', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}, {'accountAlias': 'xx', 'asset': 'BUSD', 'balance': '0.00000000', 'withdrawAvailable': '0.00000000', 'updateTime': 0}]

So you can make this,

acc_balance = client.futures_account_balance()

as

acc_balance = client.futures_account_balance()[0]

such that your acc_balance is a dictionary and not a list anymore

Answer 3

This should give you the USDT balance from the data structure if you are targetting USDT. You can loop through as answered previously if not.

acc_balance = float(client.futures_account_balance()[6]['balance'])
