Bitfinex Trading Bot

About Bitfinex

Bitfinex is one of the oldest cryptocurrency exchanges, founded in 2012 as a peer-to-peer Bitcoin platform. It began as a P2P margin-lending venue for Bitcoin and later added support for a much wider range of pairs, offering strong liquidity and a stable API.

Bitfinex also runs margin and peer-to-peer funding markets, but our integration covers its spot exchange — so your bots trade unlevered, and there is no borrow cost to model.

For automation, what Bitfinex offers is an old, stable API and books deep enough on the majors that a market-making or scalping strategy gets filled close to where it quoted. It is a venue to run size on a handful of pairs rather than to screen a wide universe — the pair list is short next to Gate.io or KuCoin, and that is the trade for the execution quality.

Strategies you can run on Bitfinex

• Arbitrage: exploit price differences between two connected venues, so it needs a second exchange
• DCA: average into a position on a schedule or on drawdown triggers
• Grid trading: ladder orders through a range and work the swings inside it
• Market making: quote both sides and earn the spread
• Ping pong: buy a level, sell the next one up, repeat
• Scalping: short-horizon entries and exits on your own tick interval
• Signals: trade an external webhook, from TradingView or your own source, with each incoming signal firing the bot immediately
• WaveRunner: grid trading with anchor-scale safety and auto re-anchoring
• Custom HaasScript: Lua-based, 750+ built-in commands, visual or full-script editors

We connect to Bitfinex's spot markets only, so there is no leverage and nothing to liquidate.

Every strategy can be backtested against historical Bitfinex data before you commit capital, and you can connect an AI assistant through our MCP server to audit and write strategies in conversation.
