How to Set Up the Connection (Briefly)

Text instructions for connecting CScalp to Binance perpetual futures are below the video.

Create a Wallet on the Exchange Website

To trade on Binance, you need to create a wallet. Below, you will find a detailed description of how to create a futures wallet.

1. Log in to Your Account on the Exchange Website

Log in to your account on the Binance exchange website. Please note that Binance has two trading platforms. One is for Spot trading, and the other is for futures trading. They share the same website and have the same API Keys.

2. Create an Account for Trading

Create an account on the Binance exchange. If you want to trade futures, hover your cursor over the wallet icon in the upper right corner of the screen and click on the “Futures” option.

Determine the size of the leverage for the account and click on the “Open Futures Account” button. If you have a new account, we recommend creating your account using our referral link to receive the maximum discount for Binance Futures and Spot platforms.

Create an API Key and Secret Key

1. Go to “API Management”

Hover over the profile icon and click on the “Account” button.

After clicking on the "Create" button, a choice of protection method will be offered. Choose the most convenient for you (without this step, there will be no access to create the API).

3. Enter the Confirmation Code

In the next window, you will have to pass a security check. The verification can be completed via Passkey, email, Google Authenticator, or your phone number.

Important! The “Secret Key” is displayed only once upon creation. Copy it when you see it to later paste it into CScalp. If you lose the “Secret Key,” a new API key pair can always be recreated. The “API Key” and “Secret Key” are analogs of a username and password. They are needed to connect to Binance.

4. Check the “API Restrictions”

After passing the security check, you will be able to see your API Key and Secret Key. Copy and save the secret key, as it will be hidden later.

To set permissions for trading without IP address binding, uncheck the box that activates Default Security Controls.
IP binding restriction option within the Binance API Key settings
A window will appear where you have to confirm the exchange's lack of liability when using API keys without binding to an IP address.

Tick the box and click the “Confirm” button.

To trade futures, “enable” a special parameter on the exchange’s website. The parameter is called “Enable Futures.” You can manage it from your account. Make sure to check the “Enable Spot and Margin Trading” box.

Click “Save.
