Can you please create a detailed video about installing & configuring Symbot for an exchange (kucoin if possible) in Windows 10. I have zero clue about coding, server, etc. that's why I want a detailed guide & probably some other people want as well 🙏

There is actually a new video on GitHub that shows step by step how to install SymBot on Linux (Ubuntu) at https://github.com/3cqs-coder/SymBot#installation-video. It might help if you're planning to use Windows too until a video is made demonstrating that platform, which will hopefully be in the near future. :)

I figured everything out except how to connect kucoin with this bot.

Where should I place my api key, secret & passphrase

[3cqs-coder]

Those are placed in bot.json but not required if you're just doing paper testing, which is highly recommended along with only using sandBox: true as described in the configuration at https://github.com/3cqs-coder/SymBot#configuration

[REFLEXGAMING007]

There's no api password while generating kucoin api key. Should I keep it null?

Also thank you soo much for the last day response 😊

Is there a way to do paper trading & real trading at the same time in 2 different bots?

I want to check some stuff

[3cqs-coder]

You can leave any API portions null or remove them if your exchange doesn't require them. It really just depends on the exchange.

Currently SymBot only supports a single exchange at a time and either real or paper trading so you would need to run two separate SymBot instances.

Means that I have to make them go through 2 different ports, right?

One is 3000 another one is something else

Also how to access the http://127.0.0.1:3000/ web interface in other devices thats also connected to the same router through ethernet or wifi with username password enabled

[3cqs-coder]

If you're running multiple instances of SymBot on the same server, then yes you will need to use a different port for each. Also, remember to a different database name for each.

For example, if you're using mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/SymBot for one, the other might be mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/SymBot2

You can can login from multiple devices like a phone, tablet, and computer if they're all connected to the same router. If you're looking to access outside of your network, that can get a bit more complicated. See Reverse Proxy Setup here https://github.com/3cqs-coder/SymBot#reverse-proxy-setup

[REFLEXGAMING007]

Wait... I can't access the same url from my mobile tho which's connected to the same router

[3cqs-coder]

The IP address 127.0.0.1 will only work when used on the same system as SymBot. It refers to the "localhost" of the machine. You need to use the IP address of your SymBot server when connecting from your mobile device, such as http://192.168.1.10:3000.

On most Windows systems you can see your IP address by opening a command prompt, then typing: ipconfig /all

All networks and servers are naturally different, so if you're still having trouble connecting, you may need to open port 3000 on any firewall or antivirus software on the server running SymBot.
