Add Your Exchange API Key

Connect Your Exchange

API Key Setup
Before You Start
  • Prepare your exchange API credentials (API Key, API Secret, and Passphrase if required).
  • Ensure the API has permissions for Futures trading (Read + Trade). Do not enable Withdrawals.
  • If your exchange supports IP whitelisting, add the platform IPs for best security.
Step-by-Step: Add Your API Key
  1. Click the profile icon in the top-right corner.
  2. Select Settings.
  3. On the Settings page, the first tab lets you adjust copy-trade settings for each supported provider.
  4. Open the second tab: Edit API Connection.
  5. Choose your exchange from the dropdown.
  6. Enter the API details provided by your exchange:
    • API Key
    • API Secret
    • Passphrase (only if your exchange requires it, e.g., OKX/Coinbase)
  7. Click Update to save and test the connection.
Validation Behavior
  • If a valid Futures balance is detected, your API connection is marked as active.
  • If there is no balance in the Futures account, the test will fail.
Troubleshooting
  • Invalid key/secret/passphrase: Regenerate on the exchange and re-enter carefully.
  • Wrong exchange selected: Ensure the dropdown matches where you created the API key.
  • Insufficient permissions: Enable Read and Trade for Futures on the API key.
  • Futures not enabled or zero balance: Enable Futures and fund/transfer to the Futures wallet.
  • IP whitelist: Add the platform IPs if your key is restricted by IP.
  • Time sync issues: Make sure system time is synced (NTP) if your exchange enforces timestamp validation.
Security Notes
  • Never enable withdrawal permissions on trading API keys.
  • Rotate or delete unused API keys regularly.
