API key invalid - bittrex

[dimoimo]

keep getting

2017-08-29 21:42:47 (DEBUG): getTicker result { Bid: 0.02630017, Ask: 0.02677724, Last: 0.02630004 }

2017-08-29 21:42:58 (DEBUG): Bittrex returned an error, retrying. [ [Function: bound] ]

each time I run. I checked for all misplaced commas, etc.

here is the key section of my config file:

config.trader = {
enabled: true,
key: '',
secret: '***',
username: '', // your username, only required for specific exchanges.
passphrase: '', // GDAX, requires a passphrase.
}

I've tried with several keys, and redownloading. Not sure what to do here

Have you filled in both the key and the secret? Are you sure the API key is valid for viewing balance and trading? Is the API key limited to an IP?

[dimoimo]

Yes I've got both completed, the API key has all permissions except withdrawal (not sure if that makes the difference?)

my next bet is to try a different exchange

[askmike]

I will test soon, but ping @imperator6

@dimoimo It works in my local pc, but i've not checked out the merged develop branch. Could try to start gekko in UI mode and add the keys via the gui. Afterwards it should also work in console mode.

I have been looking froward to using gekko on bittrex but have the same issue. I get the error when gekko runs getPortfolio

[markanderson]

For anyone still experiencing this problem, a hacky work-around in the meantime is to edit the bittrex exchange file directly and set the key and secret. That will get you up and running until a better solution is merged in.

@markanderson Thanks this workaround also worked for me. We should find a fix for this.

[askmike]

This should be fixed in develop now. @dimoimo @markanderson can you try that branch? You can download it here: https://github.com/askmike/gekko/tree/develop

Im having the same issue
Tried:
Adding the API from the Web ui.
Manually adding it in the bittrex.js exchange file
Creating a new key on bittrex and testing it, It works

Bittrex live trading is disabled in Gekko 0.6 because of this bug, see #2310 for more details.
