Give a trading bot its own key for placing orders, so your main key stays in your wallet.
What an agent key is
An agent key signs orders on behalf of your account. It cannot withdraw funds.
Create it in the exchange settings
Connect it to your bot
Revoke it any time
Tip
Keep one agent key per bot - revoking one never stops the others.
Risk
Never paste your main key into a bot.
