Quickstart

Bring BiTi up safely — from scoped API keys to a monitored, evidence-first observe run.

High risk: crypto trading can lose all or more than your initial capital. No trading strategy guarantees profit. Auto-trading requires monitoring. See the Risk Disclosure.

Overview

BiTi is an evidence-driven Bybit USDT-perpetual futures trading operating system. Create an account, complete onboarding, connect read-then-trade API keys, and begin in observation mode. The platform waits for high-quality setups rather than maximizing trade count.

Live promotion of any strategy book is evidence-gated and operator-owned — it is never forced by the UI, an alert, or an automated agent.

Setup steps

  1. Create an exchange API key with withdrawals disabled. On Bybit, generate a key scoped to trading + read only. Never enable withdrawal permission. Enable two-factor authentication on the exchange account first.
  2. Add the API key to the backend environment. Provide the key and secret to the backend via environment variables. Keys are stored encrypted; the secret is never displayed again after entry.
  3. Configure symbols and risk limits. Choose the USDT-perpetual symbol universe and confirm the risk envelope — bounded leverage, bounded concurrent positions, fractional Kelly sizing, minimum reward-to-risk, and the minimum-notional floor.
  4. Start the backend. Launch the platform service and wait for the liveness/readiness endpoints to report healthy.
  5. Start the frontend. Launch the operator dashboard so you can read the truth surfaces.
  6. Open the dashboard. Sign in and open the operator cockpit (Master Trading OS) to see portfolio, signals, blockers, evidence, and capital.
  7. Verify health, risk, evidence, and Telegram. Confirm the health card is OK, the risk controls are active, the evidence loop is accruing, and the Telegram digest is reaching you.
  8. Start in observe / paper / shadow before live. Run BiTi in research mode first. Live activation is evidence-gated and operator-owned — see Go-Live Readiness.
