Instructions for registering Gate API keys in the MoonBot terminal:
1) Register an account on the Gate exchange using our referral link https://www.gate.io/signup/MOONLOVE?ref_type=103. It is NOT necessary to switch to a universal account (UTA), as on Bybit exchange (it is impossible without VIP2 status).
2) Activate a futures account on the Gate exchange. To do this, go to futures trading in your personal cabinet on the Gate exchange website and transfer any amount of USDT to your futures account. If you do not activate the futures account and try to enter API keys into the MoonBot futures terminal, you will get the error “label”: “USER_NOT_FOUND”, “message”: “please transfer funds first to create futures account”.
3) Next, create API keys for the Gate exchange with permissions for spot and futures trading.
Below you can see the necessary permissions on the API keys. Check the boxes in advance when creating API keys!
Account Type: Trading Account
Permissions:
Enable Spot Trade and select Read And Write.
Enable Perpetual Futures and select Read And Write.
Enable Delivery Futures and select Read And Write.
Enable Wallet and select Read And Write.
Enable Subaccount and select Read And Write.
Enable Commission Details and select Read And Write.
Enable Account and select Read And Write.
If you forgot to check the necessary boxes and the API keys in the MoonBot terminal are not registered, you need to make new API keys, not edit the old ones.
4) Buy a small amount of GT tokens on the Gate exchange, which will be used to deduct trading commissions. Then go to My Fees in your Gate exchange account and under “My Spot Trading Fee” expand the menu and activate “Pay with GT tokens (Enabled)”.
5) Make a copy of the MoonBot terminal working folder to a new folder.
6) Go to Settings – Login tab, select Gate Spot or Gate Futures from the list of exchanges and click Apply.
7) Register the Gate exchange API keys in the MoonBot terminal (version becomes Free). Do not try to register the key in a freshly downloaded terminal, as it will get a new ID with no credits for activation! Make sure that the ID of the MoonBot terminal has not changed. If the ID has changed, it means that you did not follow the instructions, in this case create new API keys on the Gate exchange and repeat the process from the first point again. If you have already registered API keys with a new ID, delete them, make a copy of the MoonBot terminal folder and insert new API keys.
8) Click on the Free version in the bottom right corner of the MoonBot terminal, find the “Activate Gate.io API Key” section and click on the “Activate for 500 Credits” button. If you see “Wrong account”, it means that your account is not registered through the referral link: https://www.gate.io/signup/MOONLOVE?ref_type=103. Registration through this link also gives you the opportunity to receive a 30% refund on the commission paid to the exchange (paid by the exchange automatically according to the rules of the Gate exchange).
9) After successful activation of API keys it is recommended to restart the MoonBot terminal.
10) Important: Since Gate has a large number of trading pairs, MoonBot takes up a lot of memory! This is normal, but you should strictly follow the recommendation of “1 MoonBot per 1 VPS”.
