Trading settings

The trading settings page lets you explore trading pairs across every connected exchange, and manage settings for new and running pairs. You can preview the market on charts along with key stats.

How to create editor templates​

With custom editor templates you can build the perfect editor for your style of configuring Gunbot.

This can be used as a way to easily configure custom strategies, but you can also use it for any other buy/sell method - for example you could make an editor that hardcodes all the settings you never touch and just show the few settings you regularly use.

Templates are saved in a file in the gunbot root folder, called customStratEditor.json.
