Exchange API Setup

Exchange API Key Setup Guide

MOAHook relays your TradingView alerts to exchange APIs, so each user must create API keys directly inside the exchange account.

This guide follows the same order as the screenshots and explains why each permission, IP restriction, and key value matters.

Viewing on mobile

On each exchange detail page, you can switch between PC and mobile screenshots. Exchanges with mobile screenshots open the mobile flow first on small screens; exchanges without them use the PC flow.

API security settings

64.176.225.121

For exchanges that support IP restrictions, allow only this IP and never enable withdrawal permissions.

IP restrictions

Restrict supported exchanges to 64.176.225.121.

Never enable withdrawals

Keep asset-transfer permissions such as Withdraw, Transfer, and Sub-account Manage disabled.

Register keys immediately

Secret Keys are often shown only once, so register them in MOABOT right after issuance.

OKX API key setup

Create the key in the order shown below, then enter the values in MOABOT Dashboard > Settings > API. Even if the exchange screen changes slightly, look for API Management, API keys, or API and connections.

Values to enter in MOABOT

API KeySecret KeyPassphrase

Recommended settings

  • API trading
  • Read + Trade
  • IP address allowlist: 64.176.225.121
  • Passphrase that satisfies the 8-32 character rule

There is no field for an API key, secret, or passphrase anywhere here — MOABOT does not collect your keys directly.

OKX connection issue cases

Cautions

  • Passphrase is a value you enter in OKX and must register exactly the same in MOABOT.
  • Do not select Withdraw permission.

Capture View

Follow the PC web screenshots

This is the standard desktop-browser flow for opening the exchange API management screen and creating a key. The wider screen makes permissions and IP restrictions easier to verify.

Desktop opens the PC flow first. On small screens, mobile screenshots open first when available.
