Thanks @Serpens66, I know that it might not be wise to trade fast, first... but I am a programmer, and API's are sort of the way I interact best with anything .
...and thanks for your input on how most exchanges work.
....and thanks for your input on how most exchanges work.
Before thinking about developing anything for crypto trading, you should trade yourself.
It is important to know how everything works manually, before you try to automate anything.
After that, you can answer most of your questions yourself
Only fee on crypto exchanges are trading fee (percentage fee for every trade) and deposit/withdrawal fee (always different from exchange to exchange and currency).
There is no monthly or API fee.
Altcoin exchanges I know (dont know many):
Poloniex and Bittrex
Nearly every crypto exchange offers at least REST API.
An order is usually executed within miliseconds. But it could also take several seconds or timeout when exchange is under heavy load/DDOS or anything.

I am wondering which trading platforms that have API's I should develop for.
Any other insights? Thanks in advance!

Here is my scratch pad:
Volume by Exchange by Day by Trading Pair
Special Mentions
Notes:
Polonix - nicest exchange layout
Kraken - well made
etherdelta.github.io - most amazing implementation\
cex.io - interesting api options
- Which API's offer trading {volume / minute} or {volume / second} metrics? If not, how accurate are the 24hr volume values (do they update accurately every second?)
- What are typical transaction fees for the various APIs? Sell order fee, Buy order fee, Transaction Fee, Monthly fee, etc.
- Which Trading sites with API's offer the widest alt coin coverage?
- How fast are the actual transactions? Once I execute a transaction on a pair, how fast does it happen on average?
Any other insights? Thanks in advance!

- Great exchange comparison, thanks @serpens66: https://exchangewar.info/
- https://www.cryptocoincharts.info/markets/info Nice automatically updated list with total volume and number of traded pairs
- CryptoTrader.org is an altcoin Trading SAAS that basically is an API... you run your code in their cloud service API Docs. It allows trading on the following exchanges: Poloniex, Bitstamp, Coinbase, Huobi, OKCoin.cn, BTC-E, CEX.IO, Bitfinex, Kraken, Quoine, Cryptsy
- ta-lib.org Mother of all Market Analysis tools and functions
- CryptoCompare.com has its own API which gives a lot of independent information: API
- Not sure whether this works, it was down when I clicked: https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/
