How API key connection works
When you connect your exchange, Mirrorpip uses your API key to:- Open positions when a Mirror Leader you follow enters a trade
- Close or adjust positions when a Mirror Leader exits a trade
- Read your account balance to size positions proportionally
Connect your exchange

click on Trading account
This will show you all the suported exchanges you can connect with Mirrorpip.
Generate an API key on your exchange
Log in to your exchange in a browser or its app and navigate to the API management section. Create a new API key with:
- Read permission (to check balance and positions)
- Trade permission (to open and close trades)
- No withdrawal permissions — this is critical for security
Enter your API key in Mirrorpip
Paste your API Key and Secret Key into the fields in the Mirrorpip app. Tap Connect to confirm.
Your API key is encrypted and stored securely. Mirrorpip staff cannot view your secret key after it is saved.
