Getting Started

Supported Exchanges

Which exchanges Ionide can trade on today, what's being tested, and what's on the roadmap.

Ionide only trades on exchanges it has a dedicated, permission-scoped integration for. Connecting an unsupported exchange isn't possible, since there's no adapter to place orders through in the first place.

Currently supported

ExchangeNotes
BitgetRequires a passphrase in addition to key/secret. See Adding Exchange API Keys.
MEXCSpot and futures use separate API keys, stored separately with /secrets action:set.
OKXOne adapter slot covers both the global and Europe-regulated OKX entities. Pick whichever (or both) match where your account is registered when you set your keys.
KrakenSpot and futures use separate API keys, stored separately with /secrets action:set.

All four are available at trial start and at checkout, and all are covered by /entry, /exit, and the automated arbitrage scanner (/arbitrage-start). See Discord Commands for the full command reference. We don't list spot vs. futures support separately here, since an exchange only ships once both are working and the arbitrage strategy needs both legs.

Being tested

  • Bybit: an integration exists and is being validated by real testers before it opens up for everyone. Not yet selectable at checkout.
  • HTX: under evaluation on the same basis. Not yet selectable at checkout.

Testing an exchange before it opens up to everyone means running it against your own real account and reporting back what breaks: order placement edge cases, rate limits, auth quirks. See Testers Required for which exchanges currently need testers and what's involved.

Not yet started

No integration work has started for KuCoin, Binance, or Gate.io. We evaluate new exchanges based on user demand and whether their API and funding-rate liquidity profile fit the strategy well. Trading-only permission scoping (no withdrawal access) is a hard requirement, not just a preference, so an exchange has to support that cleanly before it's added.

Country availability

Which countries an exchange will onboard from is set by the exchange itself, not by Ionide, and can change without notice, so we don't maintain a static list here. Check the exchange's own signup flow for your region before creating API keys.
