unable to get exchange bittrex orderbook

my code snip:

id=‘bittrex’ exchange = getattr(ccxt, id)() exchange.userAgent = { “User-Agent”: “Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:23.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/23.0”,} exchange.verbose = True exchange.loadMarkets() market=‘ETH/BTC’ try: ticker = exchange.fetch_ticker(market) order_book = exchange.fetch_order_book(market) except Exception as e: dump(yellow(type(e).name), e.args)

result:

https://bittrex.com/api/v1.1/public/getmarkets GET https://bittrex.com/api/v1.1/public/getmarkets Request: {‘User-Agent’: ‘Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:23.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/23.0’, ‘Accept-Encoding’: ‘gzip, deflate’} None 2017-08-20 23:04:34 INFO ExchangeNotAvailable ('bittrex GET https://bittrex.com/api/v1.1/public/getmarkets <urlopen error _ssl.c:733: The handshake operation timed out>',) versions:

Ok, can you please try adding one of the following two CORS proxies:

# before loading markets
exchange.proxy = 'https://crossorigin.me/' # last slash critical
# or
exchange.proxy = 'https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/'

Please try any of the two, or both and report if that works. If it does, then it will mean that Bittrex is shaping traffic incoming from China.

@HaoH though, if you have a server, it’s better to run your main script there, than to run a proxy for forwarding your requests from another place. If you have a server, use it for your main application, not for a proxy-purpose )
