How to Connect Your Binance Exchange Account with Altrady

To get started with a seamless trading experience on Altrady, a cryptocurrency exchange needs to be connected with our platform.

In this article, 2 methods of connecting a Binance exchange account to Altrady will be described:

Fast Connect, for quick and automatic setup.
Manual Connection, for users who prefer a more hands-on approach.

Fast Connect, simplifies the process by:
Redirecting you to Binance for a secure login.
Automatically generating, configuring and connecting the Binance API key (with the correct permissions).
Automatically applying Altrady’s IP whitelist to the API key.

Manual Connection, by contrast, involves:
Manually logging into Binance.
Manually creating the API key.
Copying and pasting the API and Secret key into Altrady.
Manually setting permissions and pasting Altrady's IP whitelist addresses in Binance.

Binance Fast Connect



Fast Connect is a quick and automated way, to link your Binance exchange account to the Altrady platform without manually creating and copying API keys and secrets.

Fast Connect is only relevant for new Trading Accounts being connected to Altrady. To update the API key for an existing Trading Account, refer to the following section: Editing the API Key details

Step-1: In Altrady, click on Settings from the left side panel. Then, click on Exchange Account API Keys.


Step-2: Click +Add Account.


Step-3: Click on Binance.


Step-4: Ensure Fast Connect is selected. Choose whether you would like to enable Futures trading on the API key, then click Connect to be redirected to the Binance login page.

If you're already logged into Binance on the same browser, you will not be prompted to log in again.


While being redirected to Binance, the window below will be shown. If the redirect does not occur automatically, or if it takes a long time, the "Binance Fast Connect" button can be clicked to expedite the process.

Step-5: Enter the email address for your Binance account, then click Next. On the next screen, enter the password for your Binance account, then click Next again.



Step-6: Complete all the necessary verifications, as requested by Binance.


Step-7: Click Confirm to allow Altrady to create the Fast Connect API key.

A Spot Trading Account will be created in Altrady by default. Whether a Futures Trading Account is created as well, will depend on whether the exchange account has access to Futures trading.

The correct permissions will be automatically enabled on the created API keys. These will be the same permissions that need to be enabled, when creating/connecting the API keys manually and will be permissions for both Spot and Futures trading. To see these permissions, refer to Step 9 here: Manual Connection

The Altrady IP whitelist will be automatically linked to the created Fast Connect API key.


Step-8: The following message will be shown, if the Fast Connect API keys were created successfully. These windows can be safely closed.

Message on the redirect page, stating that the Fast Connect API key was created successfully
Message in Altrady, stating that the Fast Connect API key was successfully created
The error message below will be shown, if there is already a Fast Connect API key that exists on the Binance exchange account. Binance does not allow more than 1 Fast Connect key to be created, per account.

Error message that is displayed if there is already 1 Fast Connect API key on the exchange account
An error message can also be shown, if the Fast Connect Trading Accounts cannot be created, due to a limit on the number of Trading Accounts for the current Altrady subscription plan.

Error message that is displayed if the number of Trading Accounts to be created exceeds the current plan's limit
Step-9: If the Fast Connect API key was connected successfully, the relevant Trading Accounts can then be viewed from the Exchange Account API Keys page.

The default names of the Fast Connect Trading Accounts can be changed at any time by clicking "Edit" and changing the "Account Label".


Step-10: If balances are still not displayed after the Fast Connect API key has been successfully created and connected, refer to the following section: Syncing Exchange Balances

Manual Connection



Step-1: Enter Binance URL in your browser and login to your account.



Step-2: After signing in, navigate to your dashboard bar, click on Account, and select API Management. Alternatively, you can click on the profile icon in the top-right corner, select Account from the drop-down menu, then click on API Management from the menu on the left.





Step-3: Click on Create API.



Step-4: Choose the API key type. Select System Generated, then click Next.



Step-5: Now create the API by assigning it a name. Here we have assigned the name - Altrady as an example. Hit the Next button once done.



Step-6: Click on Email and Phone Number respectively, to request that a six-digit code is sent to you. Enter the six-digit code for each one, into their relevant fields, then click Submit.







Step-7: Binance will redirect you to a new page where you will be provided with your API key as well as a Secret key. Now, copy these two codes and visit Altrady website.



Step-8: If you haven't already done so, login to your Altrady account and click on the Settings icon appearing in the left hand side of the interface.
Then choose Exchange account API keys.
And click + Add API Key.



Step-9. A new pop-up will appear on your screen for adding the API Key. Select Binance.



Step-10: Ensure that Manual Connect is selected on the next window.
Assign a label to the API key.
Enter your Binance API key and Secret key generated at Step-7.
Enable Spot, Futures or both
Click the copy icon next to the IP whitelist to copy the whitelist to the clipboard

Do not close or save this window yet.


Step-11: Go back to Binance, click Edit Restrictions, then click on Restrict Access To Trusted IPs Only.



Step-12: Paste the IP addresses into the relevant field and check that all 20 IP addresses have been added.





Step-13: Click Save once all 20 IP addresses have been copied and saved.


Step-14: Hit the Save button after entering all the information.



Step -15: Click on the Add button.



Step-15: You have successfully connected your Binance exchange account with Altrady.

If you selected to enable both Spot and Futures, you will see a Trading Account for each in your list of API keys.

In the Markets widget, you will find Spot markets for Binance, by selecting Binance from the left and then clicking on Spot. For Futures markets, click on Futures after Binance has been selected.



Editing the API key details



This can be done anytime by selecting the edit option in Settings > Exchange Account API keys.
Use the Edit option to:
Update the API key/secret. This is a seamless process, as long as: the new key is valid and has the correct permissions (see Step 7, above); and your API key in Altrady is replaced before the old one is deleted by Binance, or expires.
Bots, positions and orders will be unaffected by changing to a new key.
Delete the Trading Account. Note that deleting a trading account results in the loss of all orders, trades, positions for that account. Signal Bots using that account will stop functioning. This is not reversible.


Syncing Exchange Balances



If your balances haven't yet updated from the exchange, find out how to quickly update them:



How to add an IP whitelist to your Binance API Keys



Go to Settings>Exchange API Keys
Edit your Trading Account (API Key) in Altrady to locate the set of IP Addresses for the API Key


Here you can see the list of allocated IP addresses for this API key.

These IP addresses are linked to the key in Altrady. This list of IP addresses will not work with any of your other API keys.


Log into your Exchange account and navigate to the API keys page.
If you have more than one API key for this exchange, find the correct one. You can check the API key in Altrady and make sure you have the correct one.

Click Edit.


Enable IP whitelisting
On our exchange, it might be called Trusted IPs, IP binding, IP addresses, or IP Whitelist.


Copy the list of 20 IP addresses from Altrady and paste them.
On some exchanges you must click Confirm.


Check that all 20 IP addresses have been added


Finally, click Save to save the added IP addresses.
