GOOD FIT
A good fit
- You use an OKX account that can trade perpetual futures.
- You can create a separate API key with Read + Trade only.
- You understand automated trading can lose money and needs monitoring.
ANALOGTRADER / OKX LIVE CONNECTION
Connect OKX. Keep control.
Create your AnalogTrader account, connect a real OKX account with a trade-only API key, and deploy the execution engine from one guided screen.

Keys detected with withdrawal permission are rejected. AnalogTrader is execution software, not an exchange, custodian or investment adviser. Trading involves risk of loss. No result is guaranteed.

Three checks before you paste a key.
These are the same checks shown inside the guided connection screen. Complete them first and the account can be verified without guesswork.
- 01
Have an OKX account
Free to open. Skip this if you already have one.
Create an OKX account - 02
Set the account mode to futures
Pick Spot and Futures or Multi-currency margin. In Spot only mode OKX rejects every order the engine places (error 51010) and nothing trades — this is the single most common reason a connection looks fine and then does nothing.
Open account mode settings - 03
Create an API key with Read + Trade
Leave withdrawals off. The engine never withdraws, and a key that can withdraw is a key that can empty the account. Keep the key, secret and passphrase — you will paste all three.

NOT FOR YOU
Not for you
- You want guaranteed profit, fixed returns or passive income promises.
- You want anyone else to custody or withdraw your funds.
- You do not want to review and control an automated execution system.
Your OKX account. Your permissions. Your stop button.
AnalogTrader never asks for your OKX password or withdrawal access. You review the connection before deployment and can stop the engine from your workspace.
