http://your-vps-ip

2. Choose Your Strategy

OctoBot supports several pre-configured trading modes. You can:

• Select a pre-built strategy from the OctoBot community at https://www.octobot.cloud/en/guides/octobot-trading-modes/trading-modes
• Or customize a built-in strategy to match your own logic

3. Choose Your Exchange

Connect OctoBot to your preferred cryptocurrency exchange. OctoBot officially supports Binance, Bybit, Coinbase, OKX, Kraken, and many others. Select your exchange from the OctoBot web interface and enter your exchange API keys.

4. Test Your Strategy

Before using real funds, validate your strategy using one of two methods:

• Simulation mode — OctoBot simulates trades using the same logic as live trading, but with virtual funds.
• Backtesting — Test your strategy against recorded historical market data to evaluate its past performance.

Both modes are accessible from the OctoBot web interface under the Trading section.

5. Go Live

Once satisfied with your strategy's performance, add your exchange API keys under Configuration > Accounts and switch OctoBot to real trading mode.
