Connect an exchange

Connect an exchange

Create a trade-only API key and connect a live account.

Live connections need a paid plan. Each connection is one exchange account and one market: perpetual swap (USDT-margined) or spot. To trade both, add two connections.

The key must have:

  • trading enabled for the market you choose;
  • withdrawals and transfers disabled. A key that can withdraw or move funds is rejected;
  • ideally an IP restriction to the platform's IP addresses, shown on the connect page. Without it the key works, but you get a warning.

Guides: Binance · Bybit · OKX. If a key is refused, see rejected keys.

When you paste the key, we ask the exchange for its permissions before storing anything. The secret is encrypted and never shown again. To change a key later, use Rotate API key on the connection page: the new key is checked first, and the old one stays in use if the check fails. Removing a connection deletes its key at once.
