How Do I Add a New Exchange to My Gunbot Setup?

· 3 min read

Adding a new cryptocurrency exchange to your Gunbot setup isn't as tricky as it might seem. If you're ready to expand your trading options, this guide will walk you through the process, step by step, making sure you can integrate a new exchange seamlessly into your strategy.

Steps to add a new exchange to Gunbot​

First things first, let's get you set up with that new exchange:

  1. Access the 'Manage API Slots' Page: Fire up your Gunbot interface and head straight to the 'manage api slots' section. This is where all the magic happens when it comes to connecting with new exchanges.

  2. Input API Credentials:

    • You'll need to enter the API credentials for your new exchange here. This is crucial—make sure you have the correct API key and secret from your exchange's account settings.
    • Double-check that these credentials have the necessary permissions. It’s always a good idea to verify that everything is set to allow trading and retrieving balance data.
  3. Save Your API Credentials: Once you've got everything entered, don’t forget to save. This step is what locks in the connection between Gunbot and the new exchange.

What to Do If All API Slots Are Full​

If you’ve already maxed out your API slots, don’t worry—here’s how to make room:

  1. Remove an Existing Exchange: Head back to the 'manage api slots' page and choose an exchange that you’re no longer using. Remove it to free up a slot.
  2. Add Your New Exchange: Now that you have an open slot, go ahead and follow the earlier steps to get your new exchange connected.

Don’t Forget to Save Your Changes​

After making any changes—whether adding or removing an exchange—hit that save button. This ensures your Gunbot setup stays updated and ready to trade on your newly added exchange without a hitch.

Wrapping Up​

Managing exchanges in Gunbot is designed to be straightforward, even if you're using multiple platforms. By following these steps, you'll be able to quickly and easily add new exchanges to your trading setup, keeping your strategy as flexible and expansive as you need it to be.
