OKX CEX Bot Trading

Grid and DCA (Spot & Contract Martingale) bot management on OKX. All bots are native OKX server-side — they run on OKX and do not require a local process.

Preflight

Before running any command, follow ../_shared/preflight.md. Use metadata.version from this file's frontmatter as the reference for Step 2.

Prerequisites

bash

npm install -g @okx_ai/okx-trade-cli
okx config init   # select site -> follow browser OAuth flow

Security: NEVER accept credentials in chat. Guide users to okx config init for setup.

Credential & Profile Check

Run before every authenticated command. The auth method is detected during preflight Step 2 and remembered for the session.

Step A — Verify credentials

Run both commands — the apiKey field from okx auth status --json is the auth-binary's internal state and is always false regardless of whether ~/.okx/config.toml has an API-key profile. okx config show --json is the only authoritative source for API-key presence.

bash

okx config show --json      # reveals API-key profiles (TOML config)
okx auth status --json      # reveals OAuth session state (auth-binary state)

Apply in this order — first match wins:

• config show --json has any profile with a non-empty api_key field → API Key mode. Proceed to Step B.
• No API-key profile AND auth status --json returns "status":"logged_in" → OAuth mode. Proceed to Step B.
• No API-key profile AND "status":"pending" — login is in progress, wait for it to complete.
• No API-key profile AND "status":"not_logged_in" — stop, load okx-cex-auth skill and follow login steps, wait for completion.

Step B — Confirm trading mode

Resolution:

1. User intent is clear ("real"/"实盘"/"live" → live; "test"/"模拟"/"demo" → demo) → use it, inform user
2. No explicit declaration → check conversation context for previous choice → reuse if found
3. Nothing found → ask: "Live (实盘) or Demo (模拟盘)?" — wait before proceeding

How to apply the mode depends on auth method (detected in Step A):

Auth method	Live (实盘)	Demo (模拟盘)
API Key	--profile <live-profile>	--profile <demo-profile>
OAuth	(no flag needed, live is default)	--demo

• API Key users: run okx config show --json to discover available profile names and their demo settings.
• OAuth users: omit flags for live; add --demo for simulated trading.

After every command: append [mode: live] or [mode: demo]

Handling 401 Errors

Authentication error (error contains "401", "Session expired", or "Run okx auth login first"):

1. Stop immediately
2. Load okx-cex-auth skill and follow re-authentication steps
3. Retry original command

Command Index

Grid Bot

Command	Type	Description
okx bot grid create	WRITE	Create a grid bot (spot or contract)
okx bot grid amend	WRITE	Amend price range, grid count, or TP/SL of a running grid bot
okx bot grid stop	WRITE	Stop a grid bot
okx bot grid positions	READ	Query open contract-grid positions (liquidation price, margin ratio, unrealized PnL)
okx bot grid liquidate-price	READ	Estimate liquidation price for a contract-grid bot
okx bot grid close-position	WRITE	Close remaining position after bot stopped with stopType=2
okx bot grid orders	READ	List active or history grid bots
okx bot grid details	READ	Grid bot details + PnL
okx bot grid sub-orders	READ	Individual grid fills or pending orders

DCA Bot (Spot & Contract)

Command	Type	Description
okx bot dca create	WRITE	Create a DCA (Martingale) bot (spot or contract)
okx bot dca stop	WRITE	Stop a DCA bot (spot or contract)
okx bot dca orders	READ	List active or history DCA bots (default: contract_dca)
okx bot dca details	READ	DCA bot details + PnL
okx bot dca sub-orders	READ	DCA cycles and orders within a cycle

Operation Flow

Step 1 — Identify bot type and action

Parse user request → determine module (Grid / DCA) and action (create / stop / list / details).

Step 2 — Execute

READ commands (orders, details, sub-orders): run immediately after profile confirmation.

WRITE commands (create, amend, stop): confirm key parameters with user once before executing.

Step 3 — Verify after writes

• After create → run the corresponding orders command to confirm active
• After amend → run bot grid details to confirm updated config
• After stop → run orders --history to confirm stopped

Key Rules

• Never auto-transfer funds. If balance is insufficient for bot creation, report the shortfall (current available vs required) and ask the user how to proceed: (1) transfer funds manually, (2) reduce size, or (3) cancel.
• algoId is the bot's algo order ID (from create or list output). It is NOT a normal ordId. Never fabricate — always obtain from a prior command.
• algoOrdType for grid must match the bot's actual type. Always use the value from bot grid orders — do not infer from user description alone. Mismatch causes error 50016.
• When operating on existing bots, always list first to get correct IDs, unless the user provides them explicitly.
• TP/SL constraints: tpTriggerPx/tpRatio and slTriggerPx/slRatio are mutually exclusive pairs.

Grid Bot — Amend

bash

okx bot grid amend --algoId <id> \
  [--maxPx <px> --minPx <px> --gridNum <n>] \
  [--instId <id>] \
  [--tpTriggerPx <px>] [--slTriggerPx <px>] \
  [--tpRatio <ratio>] [--slRatio <ratio>] \
  [--topUpAmt <n>] [--json]

Supports two modes that can be combined in one call:

Price-range mode — triggered when --maxPx is provided:

Param	Required	Description
--algoId	Yes	Grid bot algo order ID
--maxPx	Yes	New upper price boundary
--minPx	Yes (with maxPx)	New lower price boundary
--gridNum	Yes (with maxPx)	New grid count (integer)
--topUpAmt	No	Extra margin to add (contract grid only; omit to auto-use minimum required)

TP/SL mode — triggered when at least one TP/SL param is provided; --instId is also required:

Param	Required	Description
--instId	Yes	Instrument ID (e.g., BTC-USDT)
--tpTriggerPx	No	Take-profit trigger price (absolute). Pass -1 to clear

---

Grid Bot — Stop

bash

okx bot grid stop --algoId <id> --algoOrdType <type> --instId <id> \
  [--stopType <1|2>] [--json]

--algoId and --algoOrdType must come from bot grid orders output. The algoOrdType must match the bot's actual type — do not guess.

Workflow:

1. Run bot grid details --algoId <id> --algoOrdType <type> and check the state field.
2. If state=running: call stop with --stopType 1 (default, clean exit) or --stopType 2 (keep assets).
3. If state=no_close_position (user previously stopped with stopType=2): call stop again with --stopType 1 to close the remaining open position.

--stopType	Spot grid	Contract grid
1 (default)	Sells all base assets back to quote	Market-closes all open positions
2	Keeps base assets as-is	Cancels grid orders, leaves position open

---

Grid Bot — Positions

bash

okx bot grid positions --algoId <id> --algoOrdType contract_grid [--json]

Returns open contract-grid positions: liquidation price (liqPx), margin ratio (mgnRatio), and unrealized PnL (upl). Only applicable to contract_grid bots.

---

Grid Bot — Liquidation Price

bash

okx bot grid liquidate-price --instId <id> --sz <margin> --lever <leverage> \
  --maxPx <px> --minPx <px> --gridNum <n> --direction <long|short|neutral> \
  [--runType <1|2>] [--triggerStrategy <instant|price|rsi|webhook>] [--json]

Estimates the liquidation price for a contract-grid bot. Use before creating a bot to assess liquidation risk. The estimate needs the full intended config — the backend requires instId, sz, lever, the grid range (maxPx/minPx/gridNum) and direction (use neutral for a neutral bot); omitting any of them fails fast with the list of what's missing. runType defaults to 1 (arithmetic; 2=geometric) and triggerStrategy is optional.

---

Grid Bot — Close Position

bash

okx bot grid close-position --algoId <id> (--mktClose | --no-mktClose) [--sz <size>] [--px <price>] [--json]

Closes the remaining open position of a contract-grid bot that was stopped with stopType='2'. The close mode is required (no default, because it moves funds): pass --mktClose for a market close (immediate), or --no-mktClose --sz <size> --px <price> for a limit close order. Omitting both is rejected.

---

Grid Bot — List Orders

bash

okx bot grid orders --algoOrdType <type> [--instId <id>] [--algoId <id>] [--history] [--json]

Param	Required	Default	Description
--algoOrdType	Yes	-	grid (spot), contract_grid (contract), or moon_grid (moon)
--instId	No	-	Filter by instrument
--algoId	No	-	Filter by algo order ID. NOT a normal trade order ID
--history	No	false	Show completed/stopped bots instead of active

---

Edge Cases

Grid Bot

• Price out of range: --minPx must be < current price < --maxPx; check with okx-cex-market first
• Insufficient balance: check okx-cex-portfolio → account balance before creating. If insufficient, do NOT auto-transfer — report the shortfall and ask the user for instructions
• Contract grid direction: long (buys more at lower prices), short (sells at higher), neutral (both). Direction is required for contract grid
• Contract grid basePos: defaults to true — long/short grids automatically open a base position at creation. Neutral direction ignores this. Pass --no-basePos to disable
• Contract grid --sz: investment margin in USDT (USDT-M) or coin (coin-M), not number of contracts
• Coin-margined grids: use inverse instruments (e.g., BTC-USD-SWAP). Margin unit is the base coin (BTC), not USDT
• Stop type: stopType 1 sells/closes all (default); stopType 2 keeps assets as-is (spot grid) or leaves position open for manual close (contract grid)
• TP/SL: tpTriggerPx/tpRatio and slTriggerPx/slRatio are mutually exclusive pairs. Ratio-based TP/SL is contract grid only
• Amend — at least one mode required: must provide either price-range params (--maxPx+--minPx+--gridNum) or TP/SL params; providing neither returns a validation error
• Amend — combined mode: price-range and TP/SL can be combined in one call (two sequential API requests internally)
• Amend — clear TP/SL: pass --tpTriggerPx=-1 or --slTriggerPx=-1 (use = syntax for negative values, not --flag -1)
• Amend — contract grid topUpAmt: if new range requires more margin, provide --topUpAmt; omit to auto-use the minimum required
• Amend — spot grid topUpAmt: not supported; omit --topUpAmt for spot grids
• Already stopped bot: stop returns error — check bot grid orders --history first to confirm state
• Insufficient margin (51340): extract required minimum from error, check balance via okx-cex-portfolio, report shortfall to user — do NOT auto-transfer
• Demo mode: okx --demo bot grid create ... (OAuth) or okx --profile <demo-profile> bot grid create ... (API Key) — safe for testing, no real funds
• algoClOrdId duplicate: if the same algoClOrdId already exists, the API returns error code 51065

DCA Bot

• Spot DCA direction: must always be long. If user says "short spot DCA", explain that spot DCA only supports long direction
• Spot DCA stopType: always ask user whether to sell all tokens (1) or keep them (2) when stopping
• Contract DCA lever: required. If missing, the tool returns a validation error
• pxStepsMult: 1.0 = equal spacing; >1.0 = widen gaps between successive safety orders
• volMult: 1.0 = equal sizes; >1.0 = increase per safety order (Martingale scaling)
• triggerStrategy: instant starts immediately; price waits for trigger price (contract_dca only); rsi waits for RSI condition (both spot_dca and contract_dca)
• Already stopped bot: stop returns error — check bot dca orders --history first
• Demo mode: okx --demo bot dca create ... (OAuth) or okx --profile <demo-profile> bot dca create ... (API Key) — safe testing, no real funds
• INVALID_PRICE_STEPS_MULTIPLIER error: adjust slPct. Recalculate MPD = Σ(pxSteps × pxStepsMult^i) for i = 0..maxSafetyOrds−1, then set slPct > MPD
• algoClOrdId duplicate: error code 51065

Communication Guidelines

• Grid/DCA: use "bot" not "strategy" (e.g., "grid bot", "DCA bot")
• DCA: always say "DCA" or "Martingale" — DCA supports both Spot DCA and Contract DCA
• Chinese: Grid = "网格", Spot DCA = "现货马丁", Contract DCA = "合约马丁"
• Use natural language for parameters — "What price range?" not "Enter minPx and maxPx"
• If the user already provides values, map directly — don't re-ask

Parameter Display Names

{base} and {quote}: extract from instId by splitting on -. E.g., BTC-USDT-SWAP → base=BTC, quote=USDT.

Global Notes

• All bots run on OKX servers — stopping the CLI does not affect them
• Auth method and trading mode are determined in "Credential & Profile Check"; see that section for parameter rules
• --json returns the raw OKX API v5 response by default. Add --env to wrap the output as {"env": "<live|demo>", "profile": "<name>", "data": <response>}
• Rate limit: 20 requests per 2 seconds per UID
• Grid --gridNum range: 2–100
