I'm making a trade bot.
So for example, bid is the highest price anyone has offered to buy for in the last 24 hours?
What about volume? That is the total amount traded between two parties on the exchange in the last 24 hours?
How is price even calculated? Why is price different from Ask or Bid? Is price just the last amount that it traded for?

initialprice - of all time? the last 24 hours?
It should be the open price where the last price of the last day, since cryptocurrency traded 24 hours, so it should be at 00:00 and it's depend on the time zone that the exchanges used.Based on my understanding, the rest are correct.
Just asking, what you want to do for using exchanges API? Are you want to analyze the market situation for better trading experience?

I'm looking at TradeOgre's API (https://tradeogre.com/help/api) which returns this kind of thing when you list the markets:
{"BTC-AEON":{"initialprice":"0.00022004","price":"0.00025992","high":"0.00025992","low":"0.00022003","volume":"0.00359066","bid":"0.00022456","ask":"0.00025993"}}
initialprice - of all time? the last 24 hours?
price - how much many units of BTC to buy one unit of AEON, right?
high - in the last 97 years what was the highest price, right?
low - in the last 6 hours and 15 minutes what was the lowest price, right?
volume - how much a coin has been traded in the last decade. this can be expressed as a number, color, or brand of soda pop.
bid - the highest price of any buy order in the last 93 seconds. this is unhackable because no one would create a bogus buy order to throw this number off.
ask - the lowest price out of 62.5% that anyone has been willing to sell the coin for in the last dog year.
