Usage

[!WARNING] This bot is provided as-is. Use it at your own risk. Trading involves financial risks, and you may incur significant losses. Always test in a safe environment (e.g., a testnet and/or with small amounts) before deploying in live markets. The author is not responsible for any financial outcomes.

Prerequisites

Before using the Binance Trade Bot, you need to configure your environment with the Binance API client credentials. These credentials allow the bot to interact securely with your Binance account. Follow these steps to set up:

  1. Obtain your Binance API Key and Secret

    • Log in to your Binance account.
    • Navigate to the API Management section.
    • Create a new API key, choosing HMAC type and providing any label (e.g., CLI_Bot).
    • Save the API Key and Secret Key securely. You will not be able to view the secret again after closing the page.

  2. Set Environment Variables Export the API credentials as environment variables in your terminal before executing the binance-bot cli:

    export BINANCE_API_KEY=<your-api-key>
export BINANCE_SECRET_KEY=<your-secret-key>

  3. Set AI Provider API Keys (optional) To enable the AI multi-agent system, export one or more of the following API keys. The system works with any combination — you can use 1, 2, or all 3 providers:

    export OPENAI_API_KEY=<your-openai-api-key>
export DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=<your-deepseek-api-key>
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=<your-anthropic-api-key>
    Variable Provider Default Model
    OPENAI_API_KEY OpenAI gpt-4o-mini
    DEEPSEEK_API_KEY DeepSeek deepseek-chat
    ANTHROPIC_API_KEY Claude claude-3-5-haiku-20241022

    If no AI keys are set, the bot runs entirely on technical indicators — AI is fully optional.

  4. Create a config file You can specify a custom configuration file to adjust the bot's parameters of trading indicators.
    See the sample configuration file.

Now you're ready to use the Binance Trade Bot! 🎉
Run the Bot
Auto Trade (automatic tendency detection)
binance-bot -f binance-config.yml auto-trade -t "BTC/USDT" -a 0.001 -sl 2.0 -tp 2.5 -b 0.9998 -s 1.0003 -rp 2 -ra 5

This example:

  • Automatically detects whether BTC/USDT is trending up or down before each operation.
  • Enters bull mode (buy low, sell high) when tendency is "up", or bear mode (sell high, buy back low) when tendency is "down".
  • Re-detects tendency between every operation, adapting to changing market conditions.
  • If tendency flips during entry scanning, the bot dynamically switches mode without waiting.
  • The TUI header shows the currently active mode (BULL/BEAR) updated in real-time.
Auto Trade with forced strategy
binance-bot -f binance-config.yml auto-trade -t "DOGE/USDT" -a 100 -sl 2.0 -tp 2.5 -b 0.9998 -s 1.0003 -rp 6 -ra 0 --strategy bull

This example:

  • Forces the bot to only enter bull (buy-first) operations — useful when your account only holds USDT.
  • The bot monitors the market and waits for an "up" tendency before placing any orders.
  • If tendency flips away during scanning, the bot returns to waiting instead of switching to bear.
  • Use --strategy bear to force sell-first operations (when you hold the base coin and want to sell first).
  • Use --strategy auto (default) for fully automatic tendency detection.
Bull Trade (uptrending markets)
binance-bot -f binance-config.yml bull-trade -t "XRP/USDT" -a 50 -sl 1.5 -tp 2.0 -b 0.9998 -s 1.0003 -rp 4 -ra 0

This example:

  • Trades the pair XRP/USDT with an amount of 50.
  • Sets a stop-loss of 1.5% and a take-profit of 2%.
  • Adjusts buy and sell factors for the LIMIT order target price.
  • Rounds the price to 4 decimals and the amount to 0 decimals.
Bear Trade (downtrending markets)
binance-bot -f binance-config.yml bear-trade -t "BTC/USDT" -a 0.001 -sl 2.0 -tp 3.0 -b 0.9998 -s 1.0003 -rp 2 -ra 5

This example:

  • Sells 0.001 BTC when bearish signals are detected.
  • Sets a stop-loss of 2% (price rises above entry) and take-profit of 3% (price drops below entry).
  • Buys back at a lower price to capture the difference as profit.
Scalp Mode (high-frequency micro-trading)
binance-bot -f sample-scalp-config.yml bull-trade -t "PEPE/USDT" -a 50 --sl 0.6 --tp 1.0 -b 0.9999 -s 1.0001 -rp 8 -ra 0 -o 500

This example:

  • Uses 1-minute candles and a scoring-based entry (any 3 of 6 signals bullish).
  • Sets tight stop-loss / take-profit suitable for volatile low-cap tokens.
  • Runs up to 500 operations with only 5s between them for maximum trade frequency.
  • See sample-scalp-config.yml for the full config.
Top Gainers Monitor
binance-bot -f binance-config.yml top-gainers

Launches a real-time TUI listing the top 24h price-change gainers on Binance, filtered by quote asset, minimum volume, and an exclude list. Refreshes on the configured poll-interval. Press q to quit.

Modify these parameters based on your specific trading requirements.

Configuration

The bot is configured through a YAML file. See sample-binance-config.yml for a complete example.

Indicators Configuration
historical-prices:
  period: 100           # number of candlesticks to fetch
  interval: "1m"        # candlestick interval (1m, 3m, 5m, 15m, 1h, etc.)

tendency:
  interval: "3m"        # interval for tendency calculation
  direction: "up"       # expected direction for bull-trade

indicators:
  rsi:
    interval: "5m"
    length: 14
    upper-limit: 70     # overbought threshold
    middle-limit: 50
    lower-limit: 30     # oversold threshold
  dema:
    length: 9
  macd:
    fast-length: 12
    slow-length: 26
    signal-length: 9
  bollinger-bands:
    length: 20
    multiplier: 2.0
  atr:
    period: 14          # Average True Range for volatility
  adx:
    period: 14
    threshold: 25       # minimum ADX value to confirm trend strength
  volume:
    ma-period: 20       # volume moving average period
Trailing Stop Configuration

The trailing stop-loss dynamically adjusts to lock in profits as the price moves favorably:

trailing-stop:
  enabled: true
  activation-pct: 1.5  # activate after price moves 1.5% in your favor
  trailing-pct: 1.0    # trail by 1.0% from the peak/trough
  • For bull trades: once the price rises by activation-pct above buy price, the stop tracks from the highest price and triggers if the price drops trailing-pct from that peak.
  • For bear trades: once the price drops by activation-pct below sell price, the stop tracks from the lowest price and triggers if the price rises trailing-pct from that trough.
Scalp Mode Configuration

Scalp mode is optimized for high-frequency micro-trading on volatile tickers. Instead of requiring all 6 entry signals simultaneously, it scores each signal and enters when min-score are bullish.

scalp-mode:
  enabled: true
  min-score: 3           # minimum bullish signals out of 6 to trigger entry
  post-buy-delay: 5      # seconds to wait after fill before exit monitoring
  inter-op-delay: 10     # seconds to wait between completed operations
  require-rsi-exit: false # require RSI momentum confirmation before take-profit

Scoring signals (6 total):

# Signal Bullish condition
1 RSI Below upper limit
2 MACD MACD line above signal line
3 Tendency Matches configured direction
4 Bollinger DEMA closer to lower band than upper band
5 ADX Above configured threshold
6 Volume Current volume above its moving average

With min-score: 3 the bot enters if any 3 of 6 signals are bullish. Raise to 4 or 5 for more selective, lower-frequency entries.

See sample-scalp-config.yml for a complete high-frequency configuration tuned for 1-minute candles.

Recommended stop-loss / take-profit for scalping (after 0.2% round-trip fees):

Scenario --sl --tp Net gain/loss
Ultra-tight 0.4 0.7 +0.5% / -0.4%
Balanced ✓ 0.6 1.0 +0.8% / -0.6%
Conservative 1.0 1.8 +1.6% / -1.0%
Top Gainers Configuration
top-gainers:
  quote-asset: "USDT"      # filter pairs ending with this asset
  limit: 20                # number of top gainers to display
  poll-interval: 60        # seconds between each refresh
  min-volume: 1000000      # minimum 24h quote volume to include
  exclude-symbols:         # symbols to always exclude
    - "USDCUSDT"
AI Configuration

The AI multi-agent system is optional. When enabled, it queries multiple LLM providers concurrently with technical indicators and market sentiment data to produce a consensus trading signal.

ai:
  enabled: true
  providers:
    openai:
      model: "gpt-4o-mini"
    deepseek:
      model: "deepseek-chat"
    claude:
      model: "claude-3-5-haiku-20241022"
  min-confidence: 0.5   # minimum consensus confidence to act (0.0 - 1.0)

How it works:

  1. Each configured provider receives a structured prompt with all technical indicators plus real-time sentiment data.
  2. Providers are queried concurrently for speed.
  3. Each agent returns a signal (BUY, SELL, or HOLD), a confidence score (0.0-1.0), and reasoning.
  4. A weighted consensus algorithm aggregates all votes to produce a final decision.
  5. The AI must approve (or at least not contradict) technical signals before trades are executed.

Sentiment sources (free, no API key required):

  • CryptoCompare — latest news headlines for the traded coin
  • Alternative.me Fear & Greed Index — overall crypto market mood

Set ai.enabled: false or omit all provider API keys to disable AI and run on technical indicators only.

File Logging

All log levels (orders, info, errors) are automatically written to binance-bot.log in the working directory, alongside the TUI display. Color tags are stripped before writing. The file is opened in append mode so logs accumulate across sessions.

2026-04-07 12:30:00 [INFO]  Scalp entry: score 5/6 (min 5)

2026-04-07 12:35:10 [INFO]    ✓ RSI exit ok (RSI declining=true, scalp bypass=false)
Auto-Notional Adjustment

Binance enforces a minimum notional value (price × quantity) per symbol — typically 5 USDT. If the configured --amount would produce a notional below this threshold (common with very cheap tokens like PEPE or SHIB), the bot automatically raises the quantity to meet the exchange's NOTIONAL and LOT_SIZE filters before placing the order. A message is logged when an adjustment occurs:

BUY qty adjusted from 50.00000000 to 405210.00000000 to meet exchange filters (minNotional=5.00)

No manual intervention is required — the adjustment is transparent and logged.

Trading Strategy Logic

Bull-Trade

The bull-trade command is designed to operate during bull market trends, leveraging upward momentum to execute profitable trades.

Buy Conditions

In classic mode, the bot places a buy order when all of the following conditions are true simultaneously. In scalp mode, the conditions are scored and entry triggers when min-score out of 6 are bullish (see Scalp Mode Configuration).

  1. RSI: Value is below the configured upper-limit (default 70), indicating the market is not overbought.
  2. MACD Crossover: The MACD line crosses above the Signal line (classic) or is above the Signal line (scalp), suggesting upward momentum.
  3. Tendency Confirmation: The trend direction matches the configured direction (DEMA above EMA = "up").
  4. DEMA Proximity to Bollinger Bands: The current DEMA is closer to the Lower Band than the Upper Band, suggesting a potential reversal from oversold conditions.
  5. ADX Trend Strength (if configured): ADX is above the threshold (default 25), confirming a strong trend.
  6. Volume Confirmation (if configured): Current volume exceeds its moving average, avoiding false breakouts.
  7. AI Consensus (if enabled): The multi-agent system approves the entry or does not contradict it.
Sell Conditions

The bot will exit a position through one of three mechanisms:

  1. Trailing Stop-Loss (if enabled): After the price rises by activation-pct above buy price, the stop trails from the highest price. Triggers when price drops by trailing-pct from the peak.
  2. Fixed Stop-Loss: The price drops to the stop-loss percentage below buy price. Executes immediately (no AI delay on protective exits).
  3. Take Profit: The price reaches the take-profit percentage AND RSI is declining (skipped in scalp mode when require-rsi-exit: false) AND the AI supports the exit (if enabled).
Bear-Trade

The bear-trade command is designed to operate during bear market trends, profiting from downward price movement by selling high and buying back low.

Sell Entry Conditions

In classic mode, all conditions must be met simultaneously. In scalp mode, min-score out of 6 signals must be bearish.

The bot will open a short position (sell) when:

  1. RSI: Value is above the configured lower-limit (default 30), indicating the market is not oversold.
  2. MACD Crossover: The MACD line crosses below the Signal line, suggesting downward momentum.
  3. Tendency: The trend direction is "down" (DEMA below EMA).
  4. DEMA Proximity to Bollinger Bands: The current DEMA is closer to the Upper Band than the Lower Band, suggesting a potential reversal from overbought conditions.
  5. ADX Trend Strength (if configured): ADX confirms the trend has strength.
  6. Volume Confirmation (if configured): Current volume exceeds its moving average.
  7. AI Consensus (if enabled): The multi-agent system approves the entry.
Buy-Back Exit Conditions

The bot will exit the bear position (buy back) through one of three mechanisms:

  1. Trailing Stop (if enabled): After the price drops by activation-pct below sell price, the stop trails from the lowest price. Triggers when price rises by trailing-pct from the trough.
  2. Fixed Stop-Loss: The price rises to the stop-loss percentage above sell price. Executes immediately.
  3. Take Profit: The price drops to the take-profit percentage AND RSI is rising (skipped in scalp mode when require-rsi-exit: false) AND the AI supports the exit (if enabled).
Auto-Trade (Dynamic Tendency Detection)

The auto-trade command removes the need to manually choose between bull and bear strategies. Before each operation, the bot evaluates the current market tendency using the same DEMA-vs-EMA analysis used by the individual modes.

How It Works
  1. Strategy Selection: The --strategy flag determines behavior:
    • auto (default): Detects tendency automatically and trades in whichever direction the market is trending.
    • bull: Forces buy-first operations — the bot waits until tendency is "up" before entering. Ideal when you only hold the quote asset (e.g., USDT).
    • bear: Forces sell-first operations — the bot waits until tendency is "down" before entering. Ideal when you hold the base asset and want to sell first.
  2. Tendency Detection: At the start of each operation, the bot fetches historical prices on the configured tendency.interval and compares DEMA to EMA. If DEMA > EMA the tendency is "up" (bull); otherwise "down" (bear).
  3. Waiting for Match: When a strategy is forced (bull or bear), the bot continuously monitors tendency and only proceeds when it matches the required direction. The TUI shows the mode with "(waiting)" until tendency aligns.
  4. Mode Selection: Based on the detected/matched tendency, the bot switches to the appropriate strategy — bull (buy low, sell high) or bear (sell high, buy back low).
  5. Live Re-detection: During entry scanning in auto mode, if the tendency flips, the bot immediately adapts and switches to the opposite mode. In forced strategy mode, a tendency flip causes the bot to return to waiting.
  6. Entry & Exit: Once a mode is selected, the exact same entry conditions (classic or scalp scoring) and exit mechanisms (trailing stop, stop-loss, take-profit, AI confirmation) apply as in the standalone bull-trade or bear-trade commands.
  7. Per-Operation Adaptation: After each completed operation (entry + exit), the bot re-detects tendency before the next one.
TUI Display

The TUI header dynamically shows the current mode:

  • BULL (waiting) or BEAR (waiting) when a forced strategy is waiting for matching tendency
  • AUTO MODE in cyan at startup (when strategy is auto)
  • Switches to BULL MODE (green) or BEAR MODE (red) once tendency is detected/matched
  • Updates in real-time if tendency flips during scanning

Tip: The auto-trade command uses the same config file and flags as bull-trade / bear-trade. The tendency.direction config field is ignored — the bot determines direction automatically.

AI Multi-Agent Decision Flow

When AI is enabled, the decision flow operates as follows:

Technical Indicators ──┐
                       ├──> AI Agents (concurrent) ──> Weighted Consensus ──> Trade Decision
Sentiment Data ────────┘       │         │         │
                          OpenAI    DeepSeek    Claude
  • Entry signals: Technical conditions must pass first, then AI must approve (or at least HOLD).
  • Stop-loss / trailing-stop exits: Execute immediately without waiting for AI — safety first.
  • Take-profit exits: Require AI confirmation to avoid exiting too early in strong trends.

[!WARNING] Always test the bot in a safe environment (e.g., testnet or small amounts) before live trading. Ensure you understand the risks and implications of using automated trading strategies.
