UNICORN Binance Trailing Stop Loss CLI¶

After starting the engine, a stop/loss order is placed and trailed until it is completely fulfilled. If desired, a notification can be sent via email and Telegram afterwards.

In addition, there is a smart entry option called jump-in-and-trail. This offers the possibility to buy spot, future and margin assets with a limit or market order and then to trail a stop/loss order until sold.

The CLI interface ubtsl/ubtsl.exe is installed during the installation of unicorn-binance-trailing-stop-loss with pip or conda and is used to interact with the unicorn-binance-trailing-stop-loss Python library.

Please read carefully all provided documentation, our disclaimer and look in the issues about known problems before using this tool - you use it at your own risk!

If you put this engine on a market, you should stop trading manually on this market yourself!

Part of ‘UNICORN Binance Suite’.

Get a UNICORN Binance Suite License¶

To run modules of the UNICORN Binance Suite you need a valid license!

Description¶

After startup ubtsl tries to load a ubtsl_config.ini and a ubtsl_profiles.ini file from the {home}/.lucit/ and the current working directory. Alternatively, you can specify these files explicitly with the --configfile and --profilesfile parameters.

Once the tool is started, it trails the stop/loss order until it is completely fulfilled, sends the notifications, and then it stops.

Supported exchanges:

Exchange	Exchange string	jump-in-and-trail
Binance	`binance.com`
Binance Testnet	`binance.com-testnet`
Binance Futures	`binance.com-futures`
Binance Isolated Margin	`binance.com-isolated_margin`	(experimental)
Binance Margin	`binance.com-margin`

Installation¶

The CLI interface ubtsl/ubtsl.exe is installed during the installation of unicorn-binance-trailing-stop-loss with pip or conda and is used to interact with the unicorn-binance-trailing-stop-loss Python library.

Every parameter that can be configured via the ubtsl_profiles.ini or the ubtsl_config.ini file can also be defined as a command line argument. Therefore, both files are not mandatory, but it increases the usability immensely.

Create `ubtsl_config.ini`¶

A fresh ubtsl_config.ini file can be created with the following command

$ ubtsl --createconfigini

Create `ubtsl_profiles.ini`¶

The same command is available for the ubtsl_profiles.ini file:

$ ubtsl --createprofilesini

Open `ubtsl_config.ini`¶

Open the used ubtsl_config.ini file in a GUI editor:

$ ubtsl --openconfigini

Open `ubtsl_profiles.ini`¶

The same command is available for the ubtsl_profiles.ini file:

$ ubtsl --openprofilesini

Test the notification settings¶

If you entered valid email and/or Telegram settings you can test the notification system:

$ ubtsl --test notification

Test connectivity to Binance API¶

If you entered valid API key and secret you can test the connectivity to the Binance API:

$ ubtsl --test binance-connectivity

Test data streams¶

Test the data streams, this test needs a defined exchange and market parameter:

$ ubtsl --test streams --exchange binance.com --market BTCUSDT

It is possible to use exchange and market values of a profile.

$ ubtsl --profile "BTCUSDT_SELL" --test streams

Usage¶

$ ubtsl --help

Alternatively, it is possible to run ubtsl in the Python environment as follows:

Linux/Mac:

$ python3 -m ubtsl --help

Windows:

$ py -m ubtsl --help

Load a profile¶

If profiles are available, they can be activated with the --profile parameter at startup.

$ ubtsl --profile BTCUSDT_SELL

Command line arguments¶

Instead of loading the values from profiles, they can also be defined explicitly via command line parameters.

Any CLI parameters will overwrite predefined values from the profile.

All parameters that expect numbers can be configured with fixed numerical values as well as with percentage values.

Example commands¶

Check if a new update is available¶

$ ubtsl --checkupdate

$ ubtsl --version

Overwrite values¶

Arguments defined in the CLI overrule values from the loaded profile!

Start with profile “BTCUSDT_SELL” and overwrite the stoplosslimit:

$ ubtsl --profile BTCUSDT_SELL --stoplosslimit 0.5%

Smart entry¶

This function is still in an experimental phase and only available for Isolated Margin.

Do a smart entry by using engine = jump-in-and-trail like it is defined within the profile BTCUSDT_SMART_ENTRY of the example_ubtsl_profiles.ini.

By activating the jump-in-and-trail engine, it first buys the predefined asset amount and then trails them automatically.

$ ubtsl --profile BTCUSDT_SMART_ENTRY

List all open orders¶

Get a list of all open orders.

$ ubtsl --exchange "binance.com" --market "BTCUSDT" --listopenorders

It is possible to use exchange and market values of a profile.

$ ubtsl --profile "BTCUSDT_SELL" --listopenorders

Cancel all open orders¶

$ ubtsl --exchange "binance.com" --market "BTCUSDT" --cancelopenorders
