# Asterdex Farming Module

Set up automated farming on **Asterdex** by connecting your API keys, selecting a pair, defining orders per hour, leverage, direction, and optional TP/SL. This guide walks you through every screen in the flow, step‑by‑step.

### 1) Buy a Subscription

<figure><img src="/files/7jUfOSYVognaxR5RhxCJ" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

To unlock farming you need an active subscription.

* Click **Get Subscription** on the banner.
* The button shows the current price (**0.10 ETH**). Complete the on‑chain checkout.
* Once the transaction confirms, the subscription warning disappears and the form becomes usable.

**Troubleshooting**

* If the banner still says you need a subscription, refresh the page after your transaction confirms on‑chain.

***

### 2) Enable Trading on Asterdex

Before API orders can execute, trading permissions must be enabled on your Asterdex account.

* Click **Enable Trading** (top of the form).
* You’ll be redirected to Asterdex. Follow the on‑screen prompt to enable trading. When done, return to the Farming Module.

> Tip: You can always click **Go to Asterdex** from the module to open the exchange quickly.

### 3) Create Your API Keys (on Asterdex)

You’ll need a **Key** and a **Secret** with trading permission enabled.

1. Open Asterdex → **API Management**.
2. Click **Create API Key**.
3. **Permissions**: enable **Trade**. Keep **Withdraw** **disabled** for safety.
4. Copy the **API Key** and **API Secret**. Store them securely.

**Security Reminders**

* Never share keys publicly. Treat them like a password.
* If you suspect exposure, **delete** the key in Asterdex and create a new one.

***

### 4) Connect Keys in the Farming Module

Back in the module, paste the keys:

* **API Key**: paste your Asterdex API Key.
* **API Secret**: paste your Asterdex API Secret.
* You can use the eye icon to show/hide the value while pasting.

If you need guidance, click **How to get API key?** above the inputs.

**Common errors**

* **“API-key format invalid.”** → The key/secret is mistyped or incomplete. Re‑copy without spaces and ensure you used the correct key type from Asterdex.

### 5) Configure Your Farming Settings

This section mirrors the fields you see on the screen.

#### a) Select Pair

Choose a symbol from the **Select Pair** dropdown (e.g., **ASTERUSDT**). Badges like **50×** indicate the pair’s maximum available leverage.

#### b) Order Per Hour

How many orders the bot will place per hour. Example placeholder text shows **e.g., 10 (max 180)**.

> Higher numbers create more frequent order placements within your risk limits. Respect exchange‑side rate limits and your own strategy.

#### c) Leverage

Enter your desired leverage (e.g., `4`). Below this field, you’ll see helpful info like tier range or trading limits — they vary by coin and leverage.

#### d) Direction

Choose **LONG** or **SHORT**. The button label may show the effective leverage (e.g., **LONG – 4×**, **SHORT – 4×**).

#### e) Optional Risk Controls

* **Take Profit %** — Close the position once this profit percentage is reached (e.g., **5%**).
* **Stop Loss %** — Close the position if price moves against you by this percentage (e.g., **5%**).

#### f) Start / Cancel

* Click **Start** to launch farming with the current configuration.
* Click **Cancel** to exit without starting.
