A lot of problems with KuCoin

[EgyptianM]

Latest release for windows
Windows 10

First it doesn't fetch coins from KuCoin.
I added the exchange and enabled it , also I did save and restart the bot but still can't find coins I want from KuCoin in the coins dropdown menu
Event log has many errors and warnings I'll list them below

And it's repeating them
Note: I didn't set any api key or password yet for the exchange, I want to test the bot first.

Hi @EgyptianM, how many coins (symbols) did you configure?

Hi @EgyptianM, how many coins (symbols) did you configure?

Hi,
Just 1 coin which is WOO
I even removed BTC and I can't find my favorite coins in the list.

It doesnt work with kucoin.
I add the API Key + API secret + API password => the account said that it is connected but when i try to refresh my portfolio, i had error apikey.
Try on docker and Windows.
Worth it because it seems to be a good tool but I have to find another bot if you didn't fix this error.

** simplified comment.. : why cant you guys just have a settings page with all the generic endpoints text strings that are being used and allow us to modify them as needed / if needed...

[romcoca]

I apology for my issue, the problem of api came from another account. The problem I have with Kucoin is that the portfoli never update. I didt'n have my crypto from Kucoin on the octobot portfolio. There is no error, no warning, just nothing append (the account Kucoin is writteng login successful is account tab).

@EgyptianM you still have issues?

@EgyptianM you still have issues?

I switched to Freqtrade since I posted the issue and didn't get a solution for a long time.
Freqtrade is working great for me.

@EgyptianM @Herklos @GuillaumeDSM I had a look into the freqtrade code, actually they have a OHCLV Limit= 1500
https://github.com/freqtrade/freqtrade/blob/develop/freqtrade/exchange/kucoin.py

the rest seems like ccxt

[GuillaumeDSM]

Thanks for mentioning that it works on Freqtrade, after looking at it, it seems they also has this issue (freqtrade/freqtrade#5700) and they "fixed" it by adding a custom retry delay for kucoin, we will see what we can do to make it work as well.

this might help too
