How to Create a Binance API Key

To connect your Binance account to UnicornX, you need to create an API key with the correct permissions.

Step 1: Log in to Binance

Go to binance.com and log in to your account.

Step 2: Go to API Management

Click your profile icon → API Management

Step 3: Create a New API Key

  1. Click Create API
  2. Choose System Generated
  3. Enter a label (e.g., "UnicornX Bot")
  4. Complete the security verification

Step 4: Set Permissions

Enable the following permissions:

  • Read Info – Required
  • Enable Spot & Margin Trading – Required for trading
  • Enable Withdrawals – Do NOT enable this

Step 5: Restrict IP Access (Recommended)

For security, restrict API access to specific IP addresses if possible.

Step 6: Save Your Keys

Copy your API Key and Secret Key and store them securely. You will need these when setting up your bot in TradingView.

⚠️ Important: Never share your API keys with anyone. UnicornX will never ask for your Secret Key directly.
