Bitfinex Terminal for the CLI

Details coming soon

Requirements

• Terminal with full Unicode support
• Font with full Unicode support
• Minimum 1920x1080 resolution (recommended)

Configuring Credentials

For now, create a .env file in the project directory with two likes:

API_KEY=...
API_SECRET=...

Or provide them on the environment as API_KEY and API_SECRET when running the terminal. If using the .env file, be sure to run from the same folder.

Usage (pre-release)

git clone https://github.com/f3rno/bfx-terminal-cli
cd bfx-terminal-cli

npm i
npm link

echo 'API_KEY=...' » .env
echo 'API_SECRET=...' » .env

bfx-terminal-cli run tBTCUSD

Commands

Full summary coming soon; the quick order size defaults to the minimum trade size for the market, and is used for all order commands if no size is explicity specified. Run help to show a list of available commands.

Priming

Primes are rules for executing orders at some point in the future, when relevant conditions are met. Use them to trade with the market when large trades are seen, or the price crosses a certain indicator.

Multiple prime rules can be configured simultaneously, but when one is triggered the others are cancelled. Best used at moments of market indecision, when a break through support or resistance is possible.

Trade Groups

Trade groups are comprised of the last consecutive buys or sells, the amounts of which are summed for generated alerts when the sum exceeds the configured threshold, or triggering prime rules. The active (direction same as last trade) group is highlighted in the UI.
