The Hummingbot Foundation is an experiment in creating a self-sustainable open source ecosystem by distributing HBOT tokens to community developers who maintain the codebase.

We iterate to improve upon this distribution process via Epochs. Each Epoch is a quarterly period that are basically long agile sprints, after which the Foundation and the community may propose changes for the next Epoch.

Polls divide a fixed pool of HBOT between the connectors based on their pro-rata voting share. The Foundation assigns maintenance bounties to community developers for each connector using these amounts. See the Connector Pots tab in HBOT Tracker for the current allocations for each exchange.

Approved Governance Changes: HGP-70

The Foundation implemented three separate polls, one for each exchange type. To ensure room for new community-suggested exchanges while respecting the 20-choice limit, the following exchange removal conditions apply:

This system ensures at least 2 open slots in each exchange type for new additions every quarter. These removal conditions apply in addition to the current Minimum HBOT inclusion threshold (400K HBOT).

Polls - Hummingbot

Polls
Poll Parameters¶
- Connector Polls¶
- Connector Pots¶
- Connector Inclusion Threshold¶
Polls Process¶

The Hummingbot open source codebase contains Connectors to various CEXs, DEXs and blockchain networks where users can execute automated trading strategies. The connected exchanges and networks are constantly changing and upgrading.

Each connector in the codebase requires ongoing maintenance, documentation and testing. The Foundation regularly reviews both new and existing connectors for security issues and breaking changes to ensure that they do not cause issues for other users. Without a way to maintain a high level of connector quality, the Hummingbot codebase may descend into an unusable spaghetti codebase.

Therefore, Polls allow HBOT holders to allocate maintenance bandwidth in the form of HBOT bounties toward the connectors in the codebase, as well as decide which connectors should be included going forward.

Prior to HGP-50, polls ranked connectors into Gold, Silver, and Bronze tiers. Afterwards, Polls allocate HBOT bounties among the connectors based on their pro-rata voting share, subject tor with a maximum allocation cap.

Each quarterly Epoch, HBOT voters vote on which connectors of each type should be included in the codebase, and how much HBOT maintenance bounty allocation should be assigned to each connector.

See Connectors for more information about the types of connectors.

Polls allocate a fixed pool of 3,000,000 HBOT (1,000,000 HBOT per poll) among the top exchanges for each Poll based on their pro-rata voting share. This per-exchange amount would be a public HBOT maintenance bounty allocation which the Foundation uses to fund bounties assigned to community developers for bug fixes and upgrades related to that exchange's Hummingbot connectors.

See the Connector Pots tab in HBOT Tracker for the current allocations for each exchange.

In each Poll, a connector needs to receive at least 400,000 HBOT in aggregate votes. Otherwise, the exchange's connectors will be removed from the Hummingbot codebase in the following monthly release.

During the first week of each quarter, the Foundation will create Hummingbot Governance Proposals in the HBOT Snapshot sub-space for each poll.

Each poll lasts for 14 days, and any Ethereum wallet holding HBOT tokens at poll creation may vote. 1 HBOT token equals 1 vote.

Afterwards, the Foundation will implement the approved changes in the subsequent release.

Binance and Binance Perpetual Improvement¶
Discontinued Binary Support¶
Improved Avellaneda Market Making (Part 2)¶
Developer Updates¶
Bug Fixes¶

Released on January 27, 2022

We are very excited to ship the first official Hummingbot release (v1.0.0) today!

This release contains significant improvements to the avellaneda strategies, major updates of Binance and Binance Perpetual connectors, discontinue of the Binary build, and improved documentation for both Avellaneda and Perpetual market making strategies as well as developer documentation for perpetual connectors.

We have refactored binance and binance_perpetual with the best practices of a Hummingbot connector. Going forward, these connecotrs will be the standard for spot and perpetual type exchange connectors, respectively. Community developers who want to integrate an exchange into Hummingbot should use these two connectors as references.

Updates to these connectors include:

Some exclusive parameters for Binance have also been removed, following the major update to the Binance connector. These commands are no longer available: pnl, open_orders, trades, and binance_markets.

Changes can be seen here for Binance and Binance Perpetual.

We previously announced in the version 0.46 release notes about discontinuing binary installers. In this release, we have removed and cleaned up the codebase anything related to supporting binary installation, however, users can continue to use the older version of binaries available until version 0.46. that can be downloaded from the installation page.

New users who want to test and try out Hummingbot can launch an instance of Test Drive.

We are making improvements to the initial implementation of the Avellaneda-Stoikov strategy. In this release, we added improvements specifically to the infinite time horizon, making more sense for crypto markets since they run 24/7. The original strategy was invented for stock markets which are only active during certain trading hours.

Users can now set an infinite time horizon. Additionally, users can specify the strategy to run from time to time every day, or from one date to another date, making the strategy more flexible. For example, users can schedule the strategy to run only during a mining campaign or schedule it to only run during hours when the user is awake to keep an eye on it.

Three different use cases are possible in the current implementation:

More details are described in the Github issue #4650.

Building Gateway Connectors¶
Overview¶
Prerequisites¶
- Development Environment¶
- Protocol Knowledge¶
- Gateway Setup¶
Connector Architecture¶
Implementation Steps¶
- Step 1: Choose Connector Type¶
- Step 2: Create Connector Class¶

This guide walks you through the process of building new Gateway connectors for decentralized exchanges (DEXs). Gateway connectors enable Hummingbot to interact with blockchain-based trading protocols through a standardized REST API interface.

Gateway supports three types of DEX connectors:

Before building a Gateway connector, ensure you have:

Gateway connectors follow a modular architecture:

Determine which trading types your DEX supports:

Create the main connector class - reference Uniswap if you are building an Ethereum-based DEX connector and Raydium if you are building a Solana-based DEX connector.

Based on your connector type, implement the required methods:

Create route handler files for your supported operations:

Create configuration files for your connector:

Create comprehensive tests for your connector:

Gateway is currently not accepting pull requests for new blockchain implementations. The framework currently supports: - EVM chains: Ethereum and EVM-compatible chains (Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Polygon, BSC, Avalanche, etc.) - SVM chains: Solana and SVM-compatible chains

If your connector requires a chain built on either EVM or SVM architecture, you can proceed with the implementation below. For entirely new blockchain architectures, please check the GitHub repository for updates on when new chain support will be accepted.

If your connector requires a new blockchain:

All Gateway connectors must meet these testing standards:

Gateway uses ESLint and Prettier for code quality:

The Gateway refactoring approved in NCP-22 has been completed with the v2.8.0 release. The new standard is now ready, and developers can help upgrade the legacy connectors to the new architecture. Community developers can claim bounties for these upgrades where available.

The following connectors are available in legacy versions but need to be upgraded to the v2.8.0 standard:

Gateway implements three standardized schemas that define the API structure for different trading types. Each connector must implement one or more of these schemas to ensure compatibility with Hummingbot.

For DEX aggregators and swap-only protocols. Focuses on quoting optimal trade routes across multiple liquidity sources and executing quotes.

For traditional Automated Market Maker pools with constant product (x*y=k) formulas, such as Uniswap V2 and Raydium Standard Pools.

For Concentrated Liquidity Market Maker pools where liquidity providers can specify custom price ranges such as Uniswap V3 and Raydium Concentrated Pools.

Handling Rate Limits with API Throttler
RateLimit & LinkedLimitWeightPair data classes¶
Types of rate limits¶
- 1. Rate limit per endpoint¶
- 2. Rate limit pools¶
- 3. Weighted request rate limits¶
Integrating rate limits into the connector¶
Consuming the throttler¶

The information below are for developers building spot and perp connectors that integrate directly into the Hummingbot client. For information on developing gateway connectors that use Gateway, see Building Gateway Connectors.

This section will detail the necessary steps to integrate the AsyncThrottler into the connector. The AsyncThrottler class utilizes asynchronous context managers to throttle API and/or WebSocket requests and avoid reaching the exchange's server rate limits.

The integration of the AsyncThrottler into the connector is entirely optional, but it is recommended to enable a better user experience as well as allowing users to manually configure the usable rate limits per Hummingbot instance.

The RateLimit data class is used to represent a rate limit defined by exchanges, while the LinkedLimitWeightPair data class is used to associate an endpoint consumption weight to its API Pool (defaults to 1 if it is not specified)

limit_id can be any arbitrarily assigned value. In the examples given in the next few sections, the limit_id assigned to the various rate limits are either a generic API pool name or the path url of the API endpoint.

It is important to identify the exchange's rate limit implementation before starting development.

There are several types of rate limits that can be handled by the AsyncThrottler class. The following sections will detail (with examples) how to initialize the necessary RateLimit and the interaction between the connector and the throttler for each of the different rate limit types.

kucoin is an example of a connector that utilizes this rate limit implementation.

This refers to rate limits that are applied on a per endpoint basis. For this rate limit type, the key information to retrieve for each endpoint would be its assigned limit and time interval. Note that the time interval is on a rolling basis. For example, if an endpoint's rate limit is 20 and the time interval is 60, this meant that the throttler will check if there are 20 calls made (to the same endpoint) within the past 60 seconds from the current moment.

Configuring Rate Limits

As mentioned above, the key information to retrieve from the exchange are the limit and time_interval (in seconds) of each endpoint. An example of an exchange implementing this can be seen in the kucoin connector.

Rate limits for Kucoin can be found here.

All the rate limits are to be initialized in the kucoin_constants.py file.

binance, binance_perpetual, and ndax are examples of connectors that utilizes this rate limit implementation

Rate limit pools refer to a group of endpoints that consumes from a single rate limit. For this rate limit type, the key information to retrieve for each endpoint are its assigned pool(s) and its respective limit and time interval.

Configuring Rate Limits

An example of an exchange implementing this can be seen in the ndax connector.

All the rate limit are initialized in the ndax_constants.py file.

Notice that we assign an arbitrary limit id (i.e. HTTP_ENDPOINTS_LIMIT_ID) to the API pools and we use the LinkedLimitWeightPair to assign an endpoint to the API pool. Also do note that an endpoint may belong to multiple other endpoints.

It is also worth noting that there can be more complex implementations to API pools as seen in the bybit_perpetual connector here.

binance and binance_perpetual are examples of connectors that utilizes this rate limit implementation

For weighted rate limits, each endpoint is assigned a request weight. Generally, these exchanges would utilize Rate Limit Pools in conjunction with the request weights, where different endpoints will have a different impact on the given pool. Key information to retrieve for these exchanges are the weights for each endpoint, limits and the time intervals for the API Pool.

Configuring Rate Limits

An example of an exchange implementing this type of rate limit can be seen in the binance connector.

Rate limits for Binance can be found in the API response for the GET /api/v3/exchangeInfo endpoint here.

Binance implements both API Pools as well as weighted requests. In the example above, the BINANCE_CREATE_ORDER endpoint has a request weight of 1 for 3 API Pools, while the SNAPSHOT_PATH_URL endpopint has a request weight of 50 for the REQUEST_WEIGHT API Pool. Notice that the API Pools have different rate limits and time intervals.

The throttler should be consumed by all relevant classes that issue server API calls that are limited by the exchange (either http requests or websocket requests). Namely the Exchange/Derivative, APIOrderBookDataSource and UserStreamDataSource classes. Doing so ensures that the throttler manages all REST API/Websocket requests issued by any of the connector components.

The throttler is used as an asynchronous context manager.

The path_url must be match the limit_id of the endpoint as defined in the RATE_LIMITS constant. The throttler will match the path_url to its assigned rate limits or API pools.

Examples:

Example 1 (unknown):

RATE_LIMITS = [

We published a new video How to Use Streamlit Apps that introduces the new Hummingbot Dashboard that helps you visualize and analyze strategy performance. Soon, you will be able to see the performance of all your bots as they are running!

In the April 2023 community call, we discussed the highlights from the v1.14.0 release and the Epoch 4 governance polls.

We improved the Candles Feed Smart Component introduced in the last release. Specifically, we improved the collection of candles via REST to allow processing of WebSocket messages while the fill historical candles task is collecting the missing candles via REST.

This release added the following new Script examples:

download_candles.py: This script provides an example of how to use the Candles Feed to download and store historical data. It downloads 3-minute candles for 3 Binance trading pairs ["APE-USDT", "BTC-USDT", "BNB-USDT"] and stores them in CSV files in the /data directory. The script stops after it has downloaded 175,000 max_records records for each pair

pmm_with_shifted_mid_dynamic_spreads.py: This script will demonstrate how to extend the Simple PMM example to shift the mid-price and make the spreads dynamic by using the Candles Feed component and applying technical indicators.

Adding Paper Trade Balance¶

This feature allows users to test Hummingbot and simulate trading strategies without risking any actual assets.

Exchange APIs are not required to run the bot on paper_trade for Pure Market making, Cross Exchange Market Making and Avellaneda Market Making.

Users can now add paper exchanges by adding the exchange of choice in conf_client.yml. Previously, it was only available for AscendEX, Binance, Gate io, and Kucoin. Users can find conf_client.yml in hummingbot/conf/conf_client.yml

Add the paper trade exchange, for example kraken, to conf_client.yml:

In the Hummingbot client, kraken_paper_trade should now be available when you select an exchange:

Enter your maker spot connector >>> kraken_paper_trade

Paper trading can be enabled when creating a strategy and choosing an exchange when prompted Enter your maker spot connector during the creation of the strategy.

Alternatively, you can enable paper trading by inputting config exchange then choose the exchange that supports paper trade.

To choose a different connector and go live, simply choose the exchange name without the paper_trade suffix then do the command stop and start so the changes will reflect on your configuration.

By default, the paper trade account has the following tokens and balances which you can see when you run the balance paper command.

When adding balances, specify the asset and balance you want by running this command balance paper [asset] [amount].

For example, we want to add 0.5 BTC and check our paper account balance to confirm.

We've rolled out Python-native connectors that eliminates the need for Gateway when trading on Injective. In addition, These connectors are optimized for delegated accounts, allowing you to hold your funds in a primary account (portfolio or granter account) while signing trades and transactions with a separate trading account. The advantage? You can run multiple Hummingbot instances using the same pool of funds but different trading accounts, thus avoiding sequence number conflicts.

Changes to governance and maintenance process¶
Other Fixes and Updates¶

Released on December 21, 2022

We are very excited to ship the December 2022 Hummingbot release (v1.11.0) today! See below for the highlights in this release.

We awarded HIP-19 to community developer leastchaos who developed the hedge strategy, so that he could revamped and improve it. The changes have now been released!

Here are the key changes:

Thanks to leastchaos for this contribution! 🙏

The improvements below upgraded two of our certified exchanges to the latest CEX connector standard and should resolve issues that users have been encountering with them:

Thanks to CoinAlpha for these contributions! 🙏

Installing Gateway from source should now be much easier, since we have modified the generate_certs command so that it automatically populates the correct path in Gateway's ssl.yml file. The Gateway developer setup docs now reflect this new, simpler workflow. In addition, we also added prompts to guide users in using Gateway commands intended for Docker and non-Docker use cases in this pull request.

We also changed the default TokenList settings for each Gateway DEX connector so that it uses a local file rather than a URL. See the new Adding Tokens documentation page for more information.

In this blog post, we described some big upcoming changes to our monthly process. Starting in January, we will use regular Snapshot polls to let HBOT holders decide how maintenance bandwidth should be allocated the various exchanges, strategies, and issues. In particular, exchanges and strategies will need to get a certain minimum number of HBOT votes to stay in the codebase.

This month, we started the process by removing exchanges from the codebase that don't seem to be operational anymore:

We also started a Discord thread that lets users nominate issues for the first Issues Poll later this month.

We are excited to introduce Connector Guides, step-by-step instructions that show users how to generate credentials on various centralized and decentralized exchanges and how to use them with Hummingbot.

The Binance guide helps users set up and use Hummingbot with the world's largest crypto exchange by trading volume. It includes step-by-step instructions for generating API keys on Binance, ensuring account security through two-factor authentication, and adding these keys to Hummingbot.

The Hyperliquid guide provides instructions for using Hummingbot with Hyperliquid Vaults, where traders can deposit funds to be used by an automated strategy and earn a share of the profits. It explains how Vaults work, covers creating a Vault as a leader who operates the trading strategy, and depositing in Vaults as a depositor to passively earn returns. The guide then shows how to connect Hummingbot to Hyperliquid using a Vault address, allowing depositors to share in the performance and profits of the bot's trading strategies.

The Vega guide covers setting up a Vega wallet using the Metamask Snaps, funding it with tokens, installing Hummingbot, and connecting the wallet by entering your Vega party ID and seed phrase when prompted. The guide also provides trading pair formatting examples, troubleshooting for common issues like failed orders, and additional resources like links to Vega's documentation.

The Polkadex guide walks through setting up a Polkadex wallet, funding your trading account, and connecting it to Hummingbot to enable trading. It covers installing the Polkadex wallet browser extension, registering accounts, transferring tokens for trading, importing your trading account, and integrating it with Hummingbot by adding your seed phrase.

See Tag: Connector Guides for a full list of the current guides. HBOT holders can propose Bounties to fund the creation of additional guides by community contributors.

Hummingbot's bounty system lets sponsors tap into the thousands of quant traders and developers globally who run Hummingbot.

In this release we've revamped the documentation for the Bounties program to make it a lot easier for both Contributors and Sponsors to follow the steps needed to sponsor or contribute to a bounty. See Lifecycle of a Bounty.

Also, see the new Bounty Pricing Guidance page as a guideline to make it easier for both developers and sponsors to agree on a price for external bounties.

Hummingbot is a community of algorithmic traders and developers that help each other on Discord. We're excited to announce the following changes to the Discord Support Program:

For more information, including how to sign up, please see this blog post

This release starts a comprehensive refactor of the V2 Strategies framework, building on the foundation laid by the introduction of initial components last year. While this new framework has significantly enhanced Hummingbot's capabilities, the initial design made it challenging for users to extend and customize. See the #6844 for the ongoing pull request, which will be merged into the development branch shortly.

In addition, aside from the refactor, we've also added a couple new sample strategies in this release:

The DMan-V5 strategy strategy utilizes the MACD indicator to generate buy or sell signals, then applies a Dollar Cost Averaging approach to execute trades. It dynamically adjusts order amounts and spreads based on geometric distributions and manages executor actions based on the strategy's rules and market conditions. It includes mechanisms for taking profit, stopping losses, and employing a trailing stop to optimize trade outcomes.

The DMan-V6 strategy focuses on executing trades using the new DCAExecutor, which uses the Dollar Cost Average (DCA) approach to place orders at different price levels and conditions based on the strategy's configuration. The strategy dynamically adjusts its actions based on market conditions, the status of existing orders, and predefined settings for managing trades. This includes leveraging technical indicators, order distribution strategies, and risk management tools like stop loss and take profit parameters.

Carbon is a decentralized trading protocol that enables users to execute advanced on-chain trading strategies in a non-custodial and fully on-chain manner. It offers features like automated limit orders, custom price range adjustments, and the ability to create "recurring strategies" for buying low and selling high within specified price ranges.

- What does it cost for me to run Hummingbot?¶

See below for answers to frequently asked questions about:

Hummingbot is software that helps you build and run crypto trading bots, freely available at https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot under the open source Apache 2.0 license.

No, Hummingbot is open source client software that you install on a local machine that interacts with exchanges and protocols.

With many connectors and strategies being added all the time, Hummingbot is a constantly evolving publicly available codebase with frequent external contributors seeking to merge their changes into the master branch, which is released once a month and widely used by tens of thousands of individual and professional bot-runners globally.

You can use Hummingbot to build any type of automated crypto trading bot, with the most common bot types being market making and arbitrage bots. Market making bots provide liquidity to a trading pair on an exchange, while arbitrage bots exploit price differences between trading pairs on different exchanges.

Typically, users install the Docker image version on AWS or another cloud provider. Afterwards, they can add their API key or private keys to it, which allows them to configure and run one of Hummingbot's pre-built strategies on many different exchanges.

Since Hummingbot is an open, modular codebase, many developers and professional firms fork the codebase and use it for their own purposes.

Trust and transparency: Market makers need to keep their API keys, private keys, and strategy configuration private and secure, so which is why Hummingbot is a local software client, not a web-based platform. In addition, Hummingbot's open source codebase enables anyone to inspect and audit the code.

Community maintenance: Hummingbot's value proposition is that it connects to many different centralized and decentralized exchanges, along with pre-built strategy templates that enable users to run many different types of trading strategies. In order to scale the number of connectors and strategies, Hummingbot relies upon its open source community.

Democratizing HFT: From the beginning, our mission has been to democratize high-frequency trading with open source software.

As we wrote in the original Hummingbot whitepaper, market making is an important function critical to organic, efficient markets that should be decentralized to prevent the concentration risk that exists in traditional finance.

Later, we pioneered the concept of decentralized market making by writing the Liquidity Mining whitepaper and built the first such platform: Hummingbot Miner. Miner has turned into a successful, standalone business that provides liquidity to hundreds of tokens across multiple exchanges, powered by thousands of individual market makers running Hummingbot.

This has allowed CoinAlpha to spin off Hummingbot into a not-for-profit foundation, which is dedicated to keeping Hummingbot open source.

Market making is the act of simultaneously creating buy and sell orders for an asset in a market. By doing so, a market maker acts as a liquidity provider, facilitating other market participants to trade by giving them the ability to fill the market maker's orders. Traditionally, market-making industry has been dominated by highly technical quantitative hedge funds and trading firms that have the infrastructure and intelligence to deploy sophisticated algorithms at scale.

Market makers play an important role in providing liquidity to financial markets, especially in the highly fragmented cryptocurrency industry. While large professional market makers fight over the most actively traded pairs on the highest volume exchanges, there exists a massive long tail of smaller markets who also need liquidity: tokens outside the top 10, smaller exchanges, decentralized exchanges, and new blockchains.

See What is market making? for more information.

Similar to wallet software, Hummingbot stores your private keys and API keys in encrypted form, using the password you enter when you first start Hummingbot. These keys are saved in your /conf folder.

Since Hummingbot is a local client, your private keys and API keys are as secure as the computer you are running them on. This is because the keys are used to create authorized instructions locally on the local machine, and only the instructions which have already been signed or authorized are sent out from the client.

Hummingbot is a free software, so you can download, install, and run it for free.

Transactions from Hummingbot are normal transactions conducted on exchanges; therefore when operating Hummingbot, you would be subject to each exchange’s fees (e.g. maker, taker, and withdrawal fees), as you would if you were trading on that exchange normally (i.e. without Hummingbot).

There is no minimum amount of assets to use Hummingbot, but users should pay heed to exchange-specific minimum order sizes. We include links to the exchange's minimum order size page. This can be found in each exchange's page in Exchange Connectors.

💡 DEX / Blockchain Experience Needed

Since Hummingbot Gateway is still nascent and DEX trading bots entails more specialized blockchain engineering than running CEX bots, we recommend Gateway for users with blockchain engineering or DEX trading experience.

Hummingbot Gateway is API middleware that helps Hummingbot clients interact with decentralized exchanges (DEXs) on various blockchain networks. It:

Similar to Hummingbot client, Gateway is open source under the Apache 2.0 license. Community developers can contribute DEX and blockchain connectors to the Gateway codebase via Pull Request Proposals.

If you want to understand how Gateway works, install the standalone Gateway repository: https://github.com/hummingbot/gateway

If you just want to get Gateway up and running alongside Hummingbot, following the Install with Docker process is the easiest method.

Afterwards, follow the instructions at Using Gateway with Hummingbot.

Currently, Hummingbot Gateway is ideal for bots that:

In the future, as Gateway should support additional use cases, but we are currently focused on enabling these only.

Bots that compete with others for transactions on the same blockchain (single-domain) need to compete to get transactions confirmed and thus need to play at the MEV level.

However, to improve latency, you may explore using Flashbots Protect as the RPC endpoint, i.e. use it as nodeUrl.

Here are some helpful articles and videos:

Speed and latency in DEX trading is heavily dependent on your connection to the blockchain network. Your options are to:

1 - Use a node provider

This is the most common route. Gateway ships with [Ankr] as the default node provider, since they don’t require API keys. See default settings for each chain.

2 - Use a mempool service

For advanced or professional users, mempool services allow you to “skip the line” and send your transaction bundle to a miner for inclusion in a block.

3 - Run your own node

While this is infeasible on Solana or BNB Chain, this is possible on Ethereum and EVM-based chains. See Run a Node for more details.

Check out the amm-arb or amm-v3-lp strategies.

The Hummingbot Foundation is a not-for-profit organization established in the Cayman Islands. The Foundation’s mission is to democratize high-frequency trading by enabling decentralized maintenance and community governance over the open-source Hummingbot code repository.

Below are its main roles and responsibilities:

Since Hummingbot is not a blockchain protocol, but rather open source client software run locally on individual client devices that interacts with protocols and exchanges, the Foundation governance system aims to fits into the existing Hummingbot open source software release process, which has been used to handle thousands of Github issues and pull requests created by the community over the past three years.

A large part of Hummingbot’s value comes from the number of connectors it supports and its overall usage, which can be measured by the aggregate trading activity that Hummingbot users supply to connected exchanges and protocols. The Foundation has fee share agreements and other partnerships with these exchanges and protocols that rebate fees based on usage, tracked at the API header level.

Meanwhile, community developers can maintain Hummingbot components of the codebase and extend the toolset to more markets and asset types, keeping maintenance costs low.

In addition, the Foundation plans to charge bounty administration fees to administer, review and merge the development work performed by bounty contributors.

Based on the source of income above, the Foundation is projected to be self-sustainable at inception. Over time, we expect this margin to increase as volume and fees generated grow as the Hummingbot user base expands.

A five-person Board of Directors provides oversight over the Foundation and oversees staff who manage day-to-day operations. This board is elected by HBOT token holders every 12 months.

In addition, the Foundation has a Chief Operating Officer and Chief Finance Officer, who collectively manage partnerships with exchanges, negotiate contracts with maintainers, and oversee the Foundation’s budget and finances.

The Foundation also employs staff who administer the governance system, respond to users on Discord, and handle other day-to-day operations of maintaining Hummingbot, including:

For the past 20 years, the Cayman Islands has been one of the preferred global jurisdictions for the incorporation of new securitizations, special purpose vehicles, and other new organizations. In 2017, the Cayman Islands introduced the Foundation Company structure, a flexible structure that allows a limited liability legal entity to operate similar to a civil law foundation, steered by a decentralized set of participants. The Hummingbot Foundation uses this structure.

The Hummingbot Governance Token (HBOT) is the medium of governance for the Hummingbot open source ecosystem. It is a standard Ethereum ERC-20 token with a fixed total supply of 1,000,000,000 HBOT tokens.

HBOT is a governance token that give holders control over the Hummingbot codebase, the HBOT community treasury, and the Hummingbot Foundation. For instance, holders can:

HBOT token holders make these decisions by creating proposals and voting with their token balances. One HBOT equals one vote, and voting does not consume any tokens.

No. All Hummingbot Foundation proposals are on Snapshot, which lets HBOT holders vote by signing messages using their HBOT token balance to vote on issues without paying gas. Snapshots are recorded to IPFS to generate a permanent record.

To prevent HBOT token holders from being scammed by fraudulent versions of the token, unverified pools/DEXs, or incorrect coin listings, we maintain a compilation of verified HBOT-related pages from Reputable Sources. This does not constitute investment advice or a recommendation for any platform or market listed.

Please see Reputable Sources for information about venues where HBOT may be traded.

The Foundation plans to distribute the remaining 36 million tokens (36% of total supply) to Hummingbot users over the 4 years after inception across fixed Epochs. The goal is to distribute tokens to developers who contribute improvements to the codebase, and users of the Hummingbot software on connected exchanges and market making platforms.

See Hummingbot Governance Proposals for more information on the categories of HBOT grants.

The Hummingbot Foundation is grateful to everyone who has used Hummingbot, found bugs, and contributed to the codebase in the past. However, for the Retroactive Distribution, the Foundation decided to allocate tokens only to two types of historical activity: 1) Github code contributors and 2) users of the Hummingbot Miner platform. We chose these two types because past activity can be verified through public commit history and Miner API keys, respectively.

Other than those listed in the HBOT announcement, there are no other eligible HBOT recipients.

Exchange API Requirements
API requirements¶
- Additional requirements for perp connectors¶
Components¶
- Authorization¶
- Utils¶
- Order Book¶
- Order Book Data Source¶
- User Stream Data Source¶
- Connector¶

Exchanges with REST APIs must provide:

It is useful if the REST API provides the following, but a connector can be built without them:

Exchanges with WebSocket APIs must provide:

It would be useful if the Websocket API also provides the following, but a connector can be built without them:

Below, we describe the components that need to be implemented to create a new connector. Some components can be implemented in parallel, but others have dependencies.

Class that provides the logic for the web assistant to correctly configure authenticated requests to the exchange (private endpoint). It should be a subclass of AuthBase

Example: https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/blob/master/hummingbot/connector/exchange/binance/binance_auth.py

The Utils module is generally used to define functions that are used in several components from the connector. There is no need to add functions if the connector does not require special behavior when creating requests or does not have a special logic to generate order ids.

It is required to define in this module the configuration for the connector, including: - Default fees - Required parameters to establish a connection (for example the API Key and API secret).

The configurations have to be specified for each domain the connector will support (all connectors can handle multiple domains if configured correctly)

Example: https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/blob/master/hummingbot/connector/exchange/binance/binance_utils.py

Subclass of OrderBook to define specialized methods to create the snapshot messages, difference messages and trade messages based on the events received by the data source

Example: https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/blob/master/hummingbot/connector/exchange/binance/binance_order_book.py

Subclass of OrderBookTrackerDataSource. It includes all the logic related to receiving updates through websocket for all public channels. The class should include: - Logic to provide the latest prices in the exchange for some one or more trading pairs - Logic to return all supported trading pairs (filtering out for example any pair that could be disabled in the exchange) - Functionality to translate trading pairs from exchange notation to the client notation, and the other way around - Method to get a full copy of the current order book for a particular trading pair - Logic to subscribe to the required public channels, and process all events received. The required channels would be: order book differences and public trades events. It also requires a method to regularly do a full update of the order book (snapshot).

A tracker class has to be created for the connector (subclass of OrderBookTracker) to start the background process that receives the events and updates.

Example: - https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/blob/master/hummingbot/connector/exchange/binance/binance_api_order_book_data_source.py - https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/blob/master/hummingbot/connector/exchange/binance/binance_order_book_tracker.py

Dependencies: Order Book (to create diff messages, snapshot messages and trade messages)

Subclass of UserStreamTrackerDataSource

The class should include: - Logic to subscribe to the private websocket channels to receive order updates, trade updates and balances updates - Logic to process each type of event

A tracker class has to be created for the connector (subclass of UserStreamTracker) to start the background process that receives the events and updates.

Subclass of ExchangeBase (for exchange connectors) or ConnectorBase (for Gateway connectors).

Example: https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/blob/master/hummingbot/connector/exchange/binance/binance_exchange.py

In the case of a perpetuals exchange connector, the connector component should subclass also PerpetualTrading, and has to include the following functionality:

Example: https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/blob/master/hummingbot/connector/derivative/binance_perpetual/binance_perpetual_derivative.py

It is expected that all the components mentioned before will have unit tests validating all methods. This is independent from any validation done by QA testing.

All connector unit tests should not depend on active connections to the exchange to perform the validations. Instead, the interactions with the exchange should always be mocked or emulated. That can be done using the aioresponses library for all REST requests, and using the class NetworkMockingAssistant for websocket interactions.

Examples for their use can be found in both Binance and Binance Perpetual connectors' unit tests.

Binance connector tests: https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/tree/master/test/hummingbot/connector/exchange/binance

Binance Perpetual connector tests: https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/tree/master/test/hummingbot/connector/derivative

When an exchange does not provide a websocket endpoint for balance updates, the connector has to be configured to estimate balances based on the connector activity.

As an example, please refer to the Bybit connector: https://github.com/hummingbot/hummingbot/blob/master/hummingbot/connector/derivative/bybit_perpetual/bybit_perpetual_derivative.py

Examples:

Example 1 (unknown):

self._in_flight_orders_snapshot = {k: copy.copy(v) for k, v in self._in_flight_orders.items()}
self._in_flight_orders_snapshot_timestamp = self.current_timestamp

Order Lifecycle and Market Events - Hummingbot

URL: https://hummingbot.org/developers/connectors/architecture/order_lifecycle

Contents:

Order Lifecycle and Market Events
Order Lifecycle Flowchart¶
Creating an Order¶
Order Tracking¶
Submitting an Order¶
Order Being Filled¶
Order Completion¶
Order Cancellation or Expiry¶
Order Failure¶

Exchange connectors track status updates of all orders created in Hummingbot and emit events on status updates of its orders for the strategy modules. Be careful when implementing a new exchange connector to ensure all the status updates and emitted events adhere to the semantics defined by Hummingbot.

An order is created when a script or strategy invokes the buy() or sell() method in an exchange connector. buy() and sell() would return immediately with a client-side order ID that Hummingbot uses to track the order's status.

They would schedule the order to be submitted to the exchange as soon as possible but would not wait for the reply from the exchange before returning.

Order tracking starts when _create_order() is called. It is called from within the buy() and sell() functions.

An exchange connector should keep tracking the order's status and emit events for any change of states until the order is completed, cancelled, expired, or failed.

This is done by calling start_tracking_order() method in the Exchange class. start_tracking_order() should be called before the API request for placing the order is executed.

In most of our built-in exchange connectors, order submission occurs in the _create_order() function - although it may be different for some decentralized exchange connectors.

The _create_order() method is responsible for performing the necessary trading rule checks before submitting the order via the REST API.

Upon receiving a successful response, a BuyOrderCreatedEvent or SellOrderCreatedEvent would be emitted. Otherwise, a MarketOrderFailureEvent would be emitted. Note that despite the naming, MarketOrderFailureEvent is emitted even for limit orders.

Other market participants could fill an order over time once it's live on an exchange. Depending on the order types, i.e. limit or market, the order could be filled either immediately or after another market participant fulfils it.

For every order fill on our orders, whether partially or entirely, the exchange connector must emit an OrderFilledEvent, to notify the strategy modules about the order's progress.

Once an order has been completely filled, the exchange connector must emit a BuyOrderCompletedEvent or SellOrderCompletedEvent.

The exchange connector would stop tracking the order afterward.

BuyOrderCompletedEvent or SellOrderCompletedEvent should always come after an OrderFilledEvent has been emitted.

If an order is canceled or expired before it has been completely filled, an OrderCancelledEvent or an OrderExpiredEvent should be emitted.

For centralized exchanges, order tracking should end after emitting an OrderCancelledEvent or OrderExpiredEvent.

On decentralized exchanges - since it's possible for orders to be filled after cancellation or even expiry, due to block delays - the exchange connector may keep tracking the order for a certain amount of time afterwards.

If a failed order has been rejected for any reason other than cancellation or expiry, MarketOrderFailureEvent must be emitted.

The system enforces rate limits using a fixed window algorithm, replenishing the request allowance every 5 seconds to maintain system stability. Market makers can access higher rate limits upon request by contacting the support team.

Derive Rate Limit: https://docs.derive.xyz/reference/rate-limits

The below rate limits have been implemented to safeguard our system. Rate limiters use a "fixed window" algorithm to discretely refill the request allowance every 5 seconds.

Market makers are eligible for higher rate limits. To apply for increased rates, please contact our support team.

Note: Burst requests for both REST and WebSockets are refreshed every 5 seconds. For example, a trader can send 5× matching requests in a single burst but must wait 5 seconds before any further requests can be sent.

The below requests are counted as matching and per-instrument matching requests:

All requests outside of the above are counted as non-matching.

All non-matching requests over the REST API are rate limited per IP at a flat 10 TPS with a 5x burst.

If the limit is crossed, a 429 Too Many Requests response is returned.

A window will pop up where you can choose either API Trading or Link Third-Party Applications.

For API trading, enter the API name and API passphrase.

For linking to a third-party application, first select the name of the third-party app you wish to link. Then, enter the API name and API passphrase, and select API permissions.

For account security purposes, withdrawals are not supported by linking a third-party application, and there is no need to link an IP address. During transactions, the platform will use the configured third-party IP addresses.

During the creation process, pay attention to the relevant prompts and rules on the API creation page. Here are some points for your special attention:

The API passphrase is crucial. It is highly recommended to write it down and store it in a secure location. You will need the API passphrase for verification when using the API. Additionally, do not disclose your API key to prevent any potential loss of assets.

To ensure the security of your funds, API keys that are enabled for spot, margin, or futures trading but not linked to an IP address will be automatically deleted or have their trade permissions disabled after 30 days of inactivity. However, there is no expiration limit for API keys that only have the General permissions.

To enable access to permissions, you must add your IP address to the whitelist.

We are very excited to ship the November 2022 Hummingbot release (v1.10.0) today! See below for the highlights in this release.

Gateway continues to expand connectivity to leading DEX ecosystems, enabling Hummingbot users develop cross-chain, cross-exchange stategies. This release adds support for the following blockchains and the DEXs on them:

This release features 3 new connectors to spot markets on the following centralized exchanges:

BTC Markets is a centralized cryptocurrency exchange established in Australia, and is available for local residents only. BTC Markets aims to provide clients with an efficient, secure, and reliable trading platform. Its services are available to individuals, organizations, and Self-Managed Super Funds.

LBank is a Hong Kong-based centralized exchange (CEX) platform that was established in 2015, with offices in the British Virgin Islands, U.S., Australia and Canada. The platform allows users to buy and sell major crypto assets like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) in over 50 fiat currencies, with over 20 payment methods. The company has licenses from the National Futures Association, Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Center and money services businesses in Canada.

Whitebit](/exchanges/whitebit/) is a European centralized exchange that offers crypto-to-crypto and crypto-to-fiat transactions with 0.1% trading fees.

This release features 3 new connectors to perpetual futures markets on the following centralized exchanges:

Gate.io is operated by Gate Technology Corp. Their mission is to serve the blockchain industry by providing secure and reliable products & services to consumers and companies around the world.

Bitget is a centralized cryptocurrency exchange established in 2018 and is registered in Singapore. Bitget is one of the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchanges with a core focus on social trading.

See the Bitget documentation for more information.

This new strategy offers sets orders on a maker exchange and seeks to profit off of the difference in the spread between taker and maker exchanges. The strategy is similar to the cross exchange market making strategy however it is more reliable in ensuring orders on the taker side are filled and assets remain hedged and balanced across exchanges. See cross exchange mining for more details.

Thanks to bsmeaton for this contribution! 🙏

Hummingbot has evolved from a simple market making bot into a powerful generalized framework for building any automated trading stategy on any CEX or DEX. Hummingbot codebase now features examples of 12 different scripts that you can customize and run using Hummingbot.

Each cohort of Hummingbot Botcamp, our new intensive 4-week bootcamp that teaches students how to create custom trading strategies as simple Hummingbot scripts, will add more examples into the codebase.

All scripts examples can be found here.

To gain a deeper understanding for how Hummingbot connectors work, we recommend reading the following engineering posts from Hummingbot's original technical founder:

The following pages offer more details on various components and classes of a connector:

Spot connectors provide WebSocket and REST-based integrations to spot order book-based markets offered by an exchange, which may be centralized (CEX) or decentralized (DEX). Each connector is a folder in the hummingbot/connector/exchange folder.

Perp connectors provide WebSocket and REST-based integrations to perpetual futures order book-based markets offered by an exchange, which may be centralized (CEX) or decentralized (DEX). Each connector is a folder in the hummingbot/connector/derivative folder. By convention, these connector names end in _perpetual.

Introducing an exchange connector into the Hummingbot code base requires a mutual commitment from both the Hummingbot Foundation team and the contributing developers to maintaining a high standard of code quality and software reliability.

We encourage and welcome new connector contributions from the community, subject to the guidelines and expectations outlined below.

Here is an overview of the process to get a new connector merged into the codebase:

- Gas Fee Calculator Mode¶

Create a wallet on one of the supported networks below:

The connector supports two different account modes: - Trading with delegate accounts - Trading through off-chain vault contracts

There is a third account type called read_only_account. This mode only allows to request public information from the nodes, but since it does not require credentials it does not allow to perform trading operations.

When configuring the connector with this mode, the account used to send the transactions to the chain for trading is not the account holding the funds. The user will need to have one portfolio account and at least one trading account. And permissions should be granted with the portfolio account to the trading account for it to operate using the portfolio account's funds.

To grant permissions from a portfolio account to a trading account to operate using the portfolio account funds please refer to the script account_delegation_script.py

When configuring a new instance of the connector in Hummingbot the following parameters are required:

When configuring the connector with this mode, all the operations are sent to be executed by a vault contract in the chain. The user will need to have a vault contract deployed on chain, and use the vault's admin account to configure this mode's parameters. To know more about vaults please read the official Mito managed vaults documentation

When configuring a new instance of the connector in Hummingbot the following parameters are required:

Injective connectors support two different modes to calculate the gas fee when broadcasting transactions:

The gas estimation without simulation is more efficient because it does not require requesting the node to run the simulation (an action that could take around 200 milliseconds when using public nodes). But the gas estimation is not as accurate as the gas cost determined by the simulation. Using the gas estimation mode could result in spending a little bit more INJ on gas fee compared to the gas amount spent when using the fee calculator using simulation.

The gas estimation with transaction simulation uses a multiplier to estimate the gas fee. The default multiplier is 1.3, but users can change this value with the global variable GAS_LIMIT_ADJUSTMENT_MULTIPLIER in the constants module (hummingbot/connector/exchange/injective_v2/injective_constants.py).

CLOB Connectors
- CLOB Connector Types¶
- Current CLOB Connectors¶
- Building CLOB Connectors¶

CLOB (Central Limit Order Book) connectors integrate into a CLOB exchange's WebSocket API, enabling standardized order placement/cancellation and order book data fetching from the perspective of Hummingbot strategies. These connectors work with both centralized exchanges (CEX) and decentralized exchanges (DEX) that utilize a central limit order book model.

Each connector is customized for a particular exchange's idiosyncrasies to enable this level of standardization, so they should ideally have a maintainer, whose role is to ensure consistent performance by fixing bugs, incorporating API updates, and other ongoing work.

Currently, Hummingbot supports two CLOB connector standards, each which define how the code encapsulated in a connector folder should offer standardized API endpoints and hook into the Hummingbot client.

CLOB Spot: WebSocket-based connectors to an exchange's spot order book-based markets. Each connector is a folder in the hummingbot/connector/exchange folder.

CLOB Perp: WebSocket-based connectors to an exchange's perpetual futures order book-based markets. Each connector is a folder in the hummingbot/connector/derivative folder. By convention, these connector names end in _perpetual.

These connector standards allow users to create Strategies and Scripts that can operate on different spot and perpetual markets without modification.

Here are the CLOB connectors in the codebase for the current Epoch. Note that the Foundation prioritizes fixes for connectors from exchanges that are sponsors or partners, so they tend to be more reliable and better maintained.

The Notion templates below summarize the file and functionalities needed to build the latest spot and perpetual connectors standards and support V2 Strategies:

See Building Connectors for more information.

If the exchange is not yet supported by Hummingbot, you can submit a governance proposal for it to be included. New connectors may be contributed by community members via New Connector Proposals, which require a pull request with the connector code to the Hummingbot Github repo, along with a minimum HBOT balance to create.

What are Connectors?¶
CLOB Connectors¶
Gateway DEX Connectors¶
Connector Maintenance¶
Connector Governance¶

Connectors are packages of code that link Hummingbot's internal trading engine with real-time and historical data from different cryptocurrency exchanges and blockchains, via WebSocket and/or REST API. They standardize interactions with the idiosyncratic APIs offered by these platforms, for purposes such as gathering order book and blockchain data, as well as sending and cancelling transactions and orders.

See CLOB Connectors for a list of the current CLOB connectors in Hummingbot

Gateway connectors establish and maintain connections to automated market maker (AMM) DEXs and other protocols on various blockchain networks, interfaces with their Javascript SDKs, and exposes standard REST API endpoints for trading and liquidity provision-related actions on these DEXs.

See Gateway for comprehensive documentation about Gateway, including supported DEX connectors, API commands, and configuration.

CLOB connectors requires ongoing maintenance: fixing bugs, addressing user issues, and keeping up with updates to both the exchange/blockchain API as wel as improvements to the Hummingbot connector standard.

Hummingbot Foundation maintains certain reference connectors to maintain an updated standard and leverages community-based developers to maintain other connectors to the same standard. We assign Bounties to community developers to upgrade and fix bugs for each exchange's connectors in the codebase.

Hummingbot Foundation governance lets HBOT holders which exchanges are supported by the open source codebase.

New connectors may be contributed by community members via New Connector Proposals, which require a pull request with the connector code to the Hummingbot Github repo, along with a minimum HBOT balance to create.

For existing connectors, quarterly Exchange Connector Polls allocates HBOT bounties toward top exchanges and determines which exchanges should be included in the codebase going forward. See the Connector Pots tab in HBOT Tracker for the current allocations for each exchange.

Connector Architecture
Component Overview¶
- Exchange/Derivative.py¶
- ConnectorAuth.py¶
- OrderBookTracker¶
- UserStreamTracker¶
- OrderBookTrackerDataSource¶
- UserStreamTrackerDataSource¶
- InFlightOrder¶
- ClientOrderTracker¶

The information below are for developers building spot and perpetual connectors that integrate directly into the Hummingbot client. For information on developing gateway connectors that use Gateway, see Building Gateway Connectors.

Here is the high-level design of a connector:

Note that for Derivative (perp) connectors, we have a multiple inheritance to ExchangeBase and PerpetualTrading.

Each connector is comprised of the following components. Below are the detailed descriptions of tasks for each component and its corresponding files.

File: *_exchange/derivative.py — REQUIRED

Connector modules are centered around an Exchange/Derivative class, which are ultimately children of ConnectorBase. Each Exchange/Derivative class contains an OrderBookTracker and UserStreamTracker, and they are responsible for maintaining order books and user account information.

Exchange/Derivative instances also contain a ClientOrderTracker which tracks the connector's InFlightOrders, which are orders placed by Hummingbot currently on the order book. Typically, it is also helpful to have an exchange-specific Auth class, which generates the necessary authentication parameters/headers to access restricted REST endpoints and WebSocket channel, such as for placing orders and listening for order updates.

The Derivative class in particular inherits functions that are specifically used in perpetual markets. See the PerpetualTrading class for more info.

File: *_auth.py — OPTIONAL

This class generates the appropriate authentication headers for the restricted REST endpoints to be used by the Exchange/Derivative and UserStreamTrackerDataSource classes. Generally, this would mean constructing the appropriate HTTP headers and authentication payload(as specified by the exchange's API documentation)

Some arguments tend to include:

Depending on the specific exchange, different information may be needed for authentication. Typically, the Auth class will:

This module is typically required for centralized exchange only. Generally, auth for DEXs is handled by the respective wallet.

File: *_order_book_tracker.py — REQUIRED

Each Exchange/Derivative class contains an OrderBookTracker to maintain a real-time order book of one/multiple trading pairs and is responsible for applying the order book snapshots and diff messages to the corresponding OrderBook.

File: *_user_stream_tracker.py — OPTIONAL

Each Exchange/Derivative class contains a UserStreamTracker, to maintain the current state of the user's account, orders and positions.

File: *_order_book_data_source.py — REQUIRED

The OrderBookTrackerDataSource class is responsible for order book data retrieval. It simply collects, parses, and queues the data stream to be processed by OrderBookTracker. Generally, this would mean pulling data from the exchange's API/WebSocket servers. For Perpetual connectors, the OrderBookTrackerDataSource is also tasked with maintaining the funding information of the active market.

It is necessary to track the timestamp/nonce of each message received from the exchange API servers to maintain a consistent and up-to-date order book. Depending on the exchange responses, we can keep an order book in the following ways:

It is important that the order book being maintained reflects all changes and is consistent with the order book on the exchange. As a safeguard/fallback, in the event when Hummingbot is unable to adequately maintain the order book, executing periodic order book snapshot requests can help to ensure that any deltas missed would be corrected.

File: *_user_stream_data_source.py — OPTIONAL

The UserStreamTrackerDataSource class deals with user data retrieval. It simply collects, parses and queues the data stream to be processed by UserStreamTracker.

Unlike OrderBookTrackerDataSource, UserStreamTrackerDataSource only retrieves data about user account balances and orders.

File: /hummingbot/core/data_type/in_flight_order.py

Stores all details pertaining to the current state of an order.

It is important to keep a consistent and accurate state of all active orders placed by the user. This ensures that the strategies are given the correct information and are able to perform their tasks accordingly.

File: /hummingbot/connector/client_order_tracker.py

An instance of ClientOrderTracker holds and manages InFlightOrders by calling the connector's trigger_event method.

Provides utilities for connectors to update in-flight orders and to handle order errors.

The BudgetChecker uses the information from a TradeFeeSchema to generate a specific instance of TradeFeeBase that is then applied to an OrderCandidate in order to asses the order's effects on account balances.

The TradeFee object contains the necessary information to account for fees when estimating an order's impact on account balances.

Example: TradeFee from hummingbot.client.settings import AllConnectorSettings trade_fee_schema = AllConnectorSettings.get_connector_settings()[exchange].trade_fee_schema percent = trade_fee_schema.maker_percent_fee_decimal if is_maker else trade_fee_schema.taker_percent_fee_decimal fixed_fees = trade_fee_schema.maker_fixed_fees if is_maker else trade_fee_schema.taker_fixed_fees trade_fee = AddedToCostTradeFee(percent, trade_fee_schema.percent_fee_token, fixed_fees)

Contains the necessary information to build the TradeFee object.

For both makers and takers specifies percent and fixed fees, and tokens in which the fees are paid.

Exchanges must specify their respective default schemas inside their [exchange]_utils.py files: DEFAULT_FEES = TradeFeeSchema( maker_percent_fee_decimal=Decimal("0.001"), taker_percent_fee_decimal=Decimal("0.001") )

Example: TradeFeeSchema trade_fee_schema = TradeFeeSchema( maker_percent_fee_decimal=Decimal("1.0"), taker_percent_fee_decimal=Decimal("2.3") )

A specific instance of the TradeFeeBase class defines the fees to be applied to an order - their types, amounts and assets.

Extends TradeFeeBase, implements get_fee_impact_on_order_cost(), get_fee_impact_on_order_returns().

Fees of this class are applied on top of the cost of a buy order (e.g. a buy order of 10 COINX at 9 USDT with a fee of 1% means that the user's account will be deducted 90.9 USDT and added 10 COINX — this is most exchanges' approach to fees).

Extends TradeFeeBase, implements get_fee_impact_on_order_cost(), get_fee_impact_on_order_returns().

Fees of this class are deducted from the returns of a buy order (e.g. a buy order of 10 COINX at 9 USDT with a fee of 1% means that the user's account will be deducted 90 USDT and added 9.9 COINX — this is Binance's approach to fees).

Examples:

Example 1 (python):

from hummingbot.client.settings import AllConnectorSettings

trade_fee_schema = AllConnectorSettings.get_connector_settings()[exchange].trade_fee_schema

percent = trade_fee_schema.maker_percent_fee_decimal if is_maker else trade_fee_schema.taker_percent_fee_decimal
fixed_fees = trade_fee_schema.maker_fixed_fees if is_maker else trade_fee_schema.taker_fixed_fees

trade_fee = AddedToCostTradeFee(percent, trade_fee_schema.percent_fee_token, fixed_fees)

We are grateful for their support of open source algorithmic trading, where innovation, community, and opportunity collide.

When you sign up for an account with our partner exchanges using the Hummingbot referral link, you will receive a rebate on your trading fees!

When you sign up for an account using our referral links, a portion of your trading fees are rebated back to Hummingbot Foundation. Every time you use Hummingbot to submit an order, it sends an HTTP request to the API of the exchange. The exchange then identifies that the HTTP request for the order is coming from a user who is using the Hummingbot codebase, it checks for the metadata in the HTTP request for a Hummingbot identifier. If the identifier is present, the exchange knows that the order is coming from a Hummingbot user and will rebate a portion of the trading fees to us.

These partnerships help sustain the Hummingbot Foundation's mission to keep our platform open source and free, while providing you with trading fee rebates at no additional cost. It's a win-win arrangement that supports both our users and the continued development of Hummingbot.

Debugging & Testing Connectors - Hummingbot

URL: https://hummingbot.org/developers/connectors/debug

Contents:

Debugging & Testing Connectors
Option 1. Unit Test Cases¶
Option 2. aiopython console¶
- Issue a API Request¶
- Calling a Class Method¶
Option 3. Custom Scripts¶
- API Request: POST Order¶
Option 4: Using Debugger Tools¶
- VS Code¶
- PyCharm¶

This section will break down some ways to debug and test the code. You are not required to use these options during your development process, but they will greatly help you in it.

As part of the QA process, you are required to include unit test cases for the code review process to begin. Refer to Option 1: Unit Test Cases to build your unit tests.

You are required to provide at least 80% of unit-test code coverage to have your contribution accepted in the hummingbot repository. Examples of unit-tests can be found in the test/integration folder.

Unit-tests submitted for merging in the code base must not access any external servers directly. All server API communications must be mocked — refer to existing examples provided by the exchange you are basing your implementation on for guidance.

When writing unit-tests for submission with your PR, take extra care not to include any API authentication credentials.

This option is mainly used to test for specific functions. Considering that many of the functions are asynchronous functions, it would be easier to test for these in the aiopython console. Click here for some documentation on how to use aiopython.

Writing short code snippets to examine API responses and/or how certain functions in the code base work would help you understand the expected side-effects of these functions and the overall logic of the Hummingbot client.

Below is just a short example on how to write a short asynchronous function to mimic a API request to place an order and displaying the response received.

Printing the output from get_active_exchange_markets() function in OrderBookTrackerDataSource.

In this example, we will be using BittrexAPIOrderBookDataSource:

This option, like in Option 2, is mainly used to test specific functions. This is mainly useful when debugging how various functions/classes interact with one another.

e.g. Initializing a simple websocket connection to listen and output all captured messages to examine the user stream message when placing/cancelling an order. This is helpful when determining the exact response fields to use.

e.g. A simple function to craft the Authentication signature of a request. This together with POSTMAN can be used to check if you are generating the appropriate authentication signature for the respective requests.

Below is a sample code for POST-ing a LIMIT-BUY order on Bittrex. This script not only tests the BittrexAuth class but also outputs the response from the API server.

This section will detail the necessary configurations/setup required to run the debugger tool from your IDE of choice.

Include the following debug configurations into the launch.json configuration file

By executing the Start Debugging command, the debugger will automatically attach itself to the Hummingbot process. The Hummingbot app will appear in the integratedTerminal. You may change this as desired.

Similarly, for PyCharm, you want to set up the debug configurations, as seen in the screenshot below.

For debugging it is neccessary that Gevent compatible in Python Debugger settings is enabled. See Stackoverflow Q&A.

As of this writing, there is no way to add breakpoints/log points to any of the Cython code in VSCode or PyCharm.

Examples:

Example 1 (unknown):

# Prints the response of a sample LIMIT-BUY Order
# Replace the URL and params accordingly.

>>> import aiohttp
>>> URL="api.test.com/buyOrder"
>>> params = {
...     "symbol": "ZRXETH",
...     "amount": "1000",
...     "price": "0.001",
...     "order_type": "LIMIT"
... }
>>> async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as client:
...    async with client.request("POST",
...                              url=URL,
...                              params=params) as response:
...        if response == 200:
...            print(await response.json())

Example 2 (python):

>>> from hummingbot.market.bittrex.BittrexAPIOrderBookDataSource import BittrexAPIOrderBookDataSource as b
>>> await b.get_active_exchange_markets()
