Instructions
In order for us to perform automated trading using our script, we need to gain access to your account using an API, which gives limited access to your account.
To create this, click on or hover over the circle in the top right hand corner of the webpage with your initial in it.
From the dropdown which appears, click on “Settings”.
A further dropdown menu will appear. Click on “API”.
In the new screen which appears, click on “Generate New Key”.
In the subsequent screen, name the API key whatever you like. Here we called it “ArbitrageKey”.
Set the Nonce Window to 10 000.
Click on all the checkboxes under Funds, Orders & Trades, and Ledger.
Then click on “Generate Key”.
The next screen will show your API credentials.
NB: It’s important to keep these credentials safe – whoever has access to these keys can trade with your account. You will need to share these keys with Lumina using the form below so that we can automate the trading process. Please do not store a copy of these keys – you will not need them again.
