Bitfinex api issue #85

Open StefSmul opened 6 years ago

StefSmul commented 6 years ago

Bitfinex has stopped allowing new members to create a api key, without depositing 10k usd Is it possible that we run the bowhead without bitfinex for the data?

I have hit this issue too, not sure how to work around it atm, interested in helping to resolve ive been working through the example article.

From what Joel said, 'Bitfinex has become hostile to US residents', it has also discriminated against new signups. Just my opinion here, But I think he will be phasing Bitfinex out. And rightfully so. Who needs them anyway?

I have Bowhead set up nicely in a Laravel Homestead container. The only customisation I had to do what add the trader-ext at runtime.

I've been picking through it, looking to remove the references to Bitfinex. I have been side-tracked at the minute though with the fact some of the console commands seem broken.

I will update you if I have a resolution before Joel rolls out an update
