Getting Started

Welcome to Apex Trader!

This guide should cover everything you need to get your bot(s) up and running. 

Once you've signed up and logged in, you'll want to head over to 'My Bots' where you can create your first bot. In the top right corner, click 'New Bot' (don't worry, your 7-day free trial is automatically added to your first bot).

Once you've selected this, you'll be presented with the following:

Here is where you will decide whether you're going to build a strategy of your own or use a community built strategy.  

If you're looking to create your own, just go to 'My Strategies' and select 'New Strategy'. More information on building your own strategy can be found here.

If you'd prefer to clone a strategy, just head over to the 'Strategy Center' for the available strategies. Not sure which is the right one for you? Pop into our discord and speak with the strategy creator/users! 

After you've chosen your strategy, named the bot, chosen your base trading currency and inserted your API keys, you're ready to create! This could take a couple of minutes while we allocate resources to your very own VPS.

Once the bot has been created you should check the 'Settings' tab for additional options. More details on these here. You will also need to select the coins to trade under the section 'Coin Selection'.

Once you've selected your coins you're ready to start trading!

Your last step is to enable Buying and Selling, which you can do by clicking the 'Cog' in the top right corner (depending on the strategy you use you may also want to turn on ART, ADCA and Automation). Below shows an example of Buying and Selling enabled and Automation Disabled.
