Handling messages from Binance Websocket streams

User Data Stream

To subscribe I query listen key:

POST /api/v3/userDataStream

connect to websocket wss://stream.binance.com:9443/stream and send the listen key with the following message :

{
    "id": 1,
    "method": "SUBSCRIBE",

{
    "id": 1,
