Bitstamp

These instructions will help you configure a Crypto Setting for the Bitstamp Exchange.

CAS version 20220311 (and later) supports v2 of the Bitstamp API.

1. Login to your account at: https://www.bitstamp.net

2. Locate your Bitstamp User ID (“username”):

Navigate to: https://www.bitstamp.net/account/change_password/

This is your "username" parameter.

3. Create your API keys:

Navigate to the "API Access" screen.

https://www.bitstamp.net/account/security/api

Create/add a new API Key.

Select all permissions:

Generate the key:

Verify your 2FA:

Save the generated API Key & Secret Key, and request activation:

Wait for the activation email from Bitstamp, then activate the key:

After the email verification is finished, the key will be active.

TIP: After you’ve tested the API keys, create and deploy a new keyset with more restrictive permissions to improve your security (e.g. one keyset per coin, limit account permissions, whitelisting, etc.).

3. Finally, enter the required parameters into CAS:

Select Bitstamp.net Exchange
Parameters: fiatcurrency : username : apikey : secretkey
- fiatcurrency may be "USD" or "EUR".
- username was determined in step 2 above.
- apikey and secretkey were determined in step 2 above.
In this example, using the above, our "Parameters" looks like this:
- USD:073658:Petanz7pjEFBqAdGZEeii5OdOc9PDIkP:zJqe9Ud9n8gWL42a3gDV1R85vbJhAfHi

4. Save the Crypto Setting!

5. Test it (you’re done):

Test your settings before deploying them.

Save your setting first,
return to the same Crypto Setting,
run the test(s).
