/autotrade: switch on HafizeBot auto-trading and connect Binance
/autotrade switches auto-trading on for a VIP account, the free trial included, and gives the steps to add a Binance futures API key on the website, never in the chat; then /on starts trading.
- Command
/autotrade- Who can use it
- VIP members, the free trial included
- Where
- In your chat with @hafizebot on Telegram
Auto-trading means the bot places each signal that passes your settings on your own Binance USDⓈ-M futures account, through an API key you create. /autotrade is the first step. Typing autotrading does the same.
Examples
/autotrade
For a VIP member, the bot switches auto-trading on for the account and replies with the steps:
Auto-trading is switched on for your account. Now add your Binance API key - on the website, never in this chat:
1. Open https://www.hafizebot.com/app/login and tap "Log in with Telegram" (this same Telegram account).
2. Open https://www.hafizebot.com/app/keys and paste the key and secret.
3. In Binance the key needs: Enable Futures ON, Enable Withdrawals OFF, IP restriction …
It ends with the starting settings: 25 USDT of margin per trade at 2x (a 50 USDT position) on isolated margin, up to 10 positions, signals of strength 2 and up, a 35% stop-loss, and TradFi coins not traded.
Without VIP, the bot offers the free trial instead:
Auto-trading is part of VIP. Try it free for 3 days with /trial (capped at 10 USDT of margin per trade), or see the plans with /join. Then send /autotrade again and it switches on immediately.
Questions
Why can't I paste my API key in the chat?
Chats are the wrong place for secrets. Keys are added on the website at /app/keys, stored encrypted and never shown back. If you paste one in a chat by mistake, the bot does not store it and tells you to delete that key on Binance and create a new one.
Which permissions does the key need?
Enable Futures on, Enable Withdrawals off, and the IP restriction the steps give. HafizeBot never needs withdrawal permission and never calls a withdrawal or transfer. Step by step, with each Binance screen: connect your Binance API key.
Does /autotrade start trading straight away?
No. It prepares your account. Trading starts after you add a key and send /on; check /summary first.
Does my Binance account need any setting?
Futures must be in One-way mode, not Hedge mode. See one-way mode.

- /on/on starts auto-trading: the bot checks your Binance key and then trades the next signal that passes your settings; it stays off and says why if Binance refuses the key or Enable Futures is off.
- /settings/settings opens the auto-trading menu: a button to switch trading on or off, your summary, the settings explained, and a button for every setting, each next to the command that shows your current value.
- /summary/summary shows every auto-trading setting with the command that changes it, and what your settings put at risk in USDT: margin per trade, position size at your leverage, margin in use and the loss at your stop.
- /setup/setup shows a checklist of your account (VIP, Binance key, auto-trading, stop-loss and limits) and ends with the one step to take next, so you always know what is missing before the bot can trade for you.
