Profile sharing in OctoBot cloud

cover

Why sharing an OctoBot profile ?

In OctoBot, your configuration is stored as a profile. A profile contains:

  • Your activated trading mode and evaluators alongside their configuration
  • Your traded pairs
  • The exchanges you are currently using (without authentication credentials)

Sharing your profile means sharing your current trading strategy configuration. Anyone using your profile will be able to trade in the exact same way as you do with your OctoBot.

How to share a profile ?

  1. Select and download it from your OctoBot Profile-sharing-from-octobot
  2. Login on OctoBot cloud, go to Editor and Publish a new strategy Profile-sharing-octobot-cloud-editor
  3. Enter your profile name, description and logo Profile-sharing-octobot-cloud-publish
  4. Upload the profile as downloaded from your OctoBot Profile-sharing-octobot-cloud-publish-profile
  5. Submit your profile to make it available to everyone on OctoBot cloud

Note: For now, we are manually checking profiles, therefore there will be a short delay before your profile will be available to everyone on OctoBot cloud.
