Support Hummingbot

Hummingbot Foundation has a fee share partnership with Huobi. When you use our software to trade on Huobi, a custom API header tells Huobi that the trade was executed using Hummingbot, so they share a portion of your fees with us, at no cost to you. To support us, just enter your API keys into Hummingbot and run bots! Thanks for your support! 🙏

🔑 How to Connect

Generate API Keys

  • Go to https://www.huobi.com/en-us

  • Click “Account Icon” for a drop-down menu, select “API Management”

    API

  • Each user is only allowed to create up to 5 API Keys. For security reasons, we recommend that each API Key should bind up to a maximum of four (4) IP addresses per key. If there is only one IP address, you can enter it directly. If there are more than one IP addresses, you should separate them with halfwidth comma (e.g. 192.168.1.1,192.168.1.2,192.168.1.3).

    • It is compulsory to fill in the ‘Note’ field
    • Insert your IP address that you wish to bind (optional)
    • Click “Create” to proceed.
    • Please visit HuobiAPI Github for code references.

    API

  • Please complete the SMS, Email & Google Authenticator(GA) security authentication. To generate the security code for SMS and Email, you are required to click the “Send” button.

  • Once you have completed the security authentication, click "Confirm" to proceed.

    API

  • Once you completed the security authentication, your API "Access Key" and "Secret Key" will pop-up. Click "Confirm" to close the pop-up window.

  • Kindly note that the “Secret Key” will only be visible at this stage. Should you misplace or lose your 'Secret Key”, you will need to create a new API Key.

    API

  • You have successfully created an API key with a standard validity of 90 days. You may edit the API key note and bind IP address simply by clicking “Edit”. You may choose to delete the API key by clicking “Delete”.
