FAQ

My key was created using Fast Connect or Third Party. Why can’t I edit the IP whitelist?

These types of API keys are automatically generated by the exchange with pre-filled permissions and whitelists. Most exchanges do not allow you to edit the IP list on these keys.

In these cases, you’ll need to manually create a new key, then paste it into your existing Altrady Trading Account. See video 2 above.


Can I create my new API key using Fast Connect?

No. Fast Connect is only intended for new exchange connections.

Using Fast Connect will automatically create a new Trading Account in Altrady, which will not be linked to your existing trading history or positions.

If you're replacing an existing API key, do not use Fast Connect.

Instead:

  • Manually create a new key on the exchange using either the third-party method or manual method.
  • Then edit your existing Trading Account in Altrady and paste in the new key and secret


My spot and futures accounts use the same API key. What should I do?

This is described in the video.

Update the IP whitelist for the first account as shown in the video for the exchange.

Note the first few IP addresses of the new whitelist.

Edit the second trading account in Altrady and click the Refresh button until the IP whitelist matches.

Then click Update to fix the new whitelist to the second trading account.


Should I ever delete my Trading Account in Altrady?

**Only in rare circumstances. ** Your trading account includes all of the history for the exchange account (trades, balances, orders, positions); if it is deleted or replaced, all of that data is lost and cannot be recovered.

If you need to create a new API key for any reason, always Edit the existing Altrady trading Account and replace the API key/secret pair with the new credentials.
