Wallex guide

Create a Wallex API key, step by step

This key lets the Yielox bot place orders on your own account, with no withdraw access at all. Wallex gives you a single key and no separate private key. Below we show exactly what to turn on, and what to never turn on.

Never turn on withdraw access

The bot only needs read and trade access. If anyone, even someone using the Yielox name, asks you to turn on withdraw access, don't, and tell our support.

Before you start

  • A Wallex account you can log in to.
  • Two-factor authentication turned on for Wallex.
  • A Yielox account with an active plan.
Step by step

Ten steps to a safe key

Menu names may differ a little from this guide, but the order stays the same.

  1. 1

    Log in to Wallex

    Log in at the official address, wallex.ir. Check the address in your browser bar before you sign in.

  2. 2

    Pick the right account

    On Wallex every account has its own keys. Use the account menu at the top of the page to make sure you are on your main account, not a trade-credit account.

  3. 3

    Open the API-Key page

    From your user panel, go to the API-Key management page.

  4. 4

    Create a new key

    Click the "Create API" button to open the new key form.

  5. 5

    Fill in the name and expiry

    Under the API name, use a label like "Yielox" so you always know what this key is for. Under "Active until", pick an expiry date. The key stops working on that date, so write it down somewhere.

  6. 6

    Read and trade only

    Read access is on by default. Turn on trade access. Leave withdraw access off. This is the most important step.

    • Read accessOn
    • Trade accessOn
    • Withdraw accessOff
  7. 7

    Submit the form

    Click "Create API-Key". Wallex sends you a code to confirm.

  8. 8

    Confirm with the code

    Enter the code Wallex texts you to confirm the new key.

  9. 9

    Copy the key

    Wallex shows the key only once. Copy it right away. Never send the key to anyone, not even Yielox support.

  10. 10

    Add it to Yielox

    In the panel, go to Accounts, add an account on the Wallex exchange and enter this one key under credentials. The panel stores the key encrypted and never shows it again.

Wallex allows at most three API keys per account and may rename or move its menus. If you can't find an option, check the Wallex developer docs or message us.

A tip about your balance

Fund your Wallex wallet with USDT, and keep a small balance of each coin the bot sells. The bot needs that balance to place the sell side of the grid.

After you add the key

  • The bot starts trading and you see everything live on the dashboard.
  • Delete the key on Wallex whenever you like. From that moment the bot can no longer trade.
  • Before the "Active until" date arrives, create a new key and replace it in the panel so the bot does not stop.

Key ready? So is the bot.
