How do I deploy a bot?

Bots › Deploy bot

Press Deploy bot. The wizard asks for a strategy, a market, paper or live, the capital it may use, a maximum leverage, a daily loss limit that pauses the bot automatically, and which notifications you want. A live deployment asks you to type DEPLOY LIVE. The bot then runs on the server, so it keeps trading when your browser is closed.

Step by step

  1. Deploy botTop of the Bots screen.
  2. Strategy and marketAny saved strategy; the market it will trade.
  3. Paper or livePaper bots are free and unlimited. Live needs a connection and a paid plan.
  4. Capital, max leverage, daily loss limitThe bot never exceeds these. Hitting the daily loss limit pauses it until the next day.
  5. ConfirmDeploy paper bot, or type DEPLOY LIVE and press Deploy with real funds.
