Exchange access, per exchange
How to create the access Durfeenz uses, and — more importantly — how to take it away again. Read the revoke step first. Someone who knows they can switch us off in one click has nothing to lose by trying us.
The one setting to never switch on
WITHDRAWAL. Durfeenz never needs it and will refuse a key that has it. If any service asks you to enable withdrawal permission, that service can empty your account — stop there.
Which permission you need
- Read only — to see balances and positions. This cannot place a trade.
- Read and trade — only if you want the strategy to execute for you. Still cannot withdraw.
IP whitelisting
Where your exchange supports it, restrict the access to our address so it is useless to anyone else. Our address is 5.75.131.133. On Binance this is not optional if you want automatic trading — see the Binance notes below.
Binance
How to revoke it: Open API Management, find the key, and delete it. It stops working immediately. Binance →
How to create it: Binance →
Worth knowing before you start
- Binance will only allow READ-ONLY access to a key that has no IP restriction. If you want automatic trading, you must add our address 5.75.131.133 to the key's IP whitelist — otherwise the trade permission is refused and the connection will not work.
- For automatic trading you also need Futures enabled on the key.
- You need two-factor authentication switched on before Binance will let you create a key at all.
Bybit
How to revoke it: API Management, then Delete next to the key, then confirm. Bybit →
How to create it: Bybit →
Worth knowing before you start
- Both creating and deleting a key can only be done on the Bybit website. There is no way to do either in the Bybit app.
- New accounts may be blocked from creating keys for the first 48 hours after signing up. That is Bybit's rule, not ours.
- You will need your authenticator code to create the key.
OKX (not yet supported)
How to revoke it: Profile, then API. Open the key and delete it. OKX (not yet supported) →
How to create it: OKX (not yet supported) →
Worth knowing before you start
- OKX requires a passphrase when you create a key, and asks for it again whenever the key is used. Keep it — without it the key cannot be connected, and OKX will not show it to you again.
- OKX requires roughly 100 USD in the account before it will let you create a key at all.
- A key can be restricted to a set of IP addresses. Use 5.75.131.133.
