How to connect AltCoinTrader to Coinfig

  1. Choose your import path

    For complete history (trades plus deposits and withdrawals), export a CSV. For trade history only, connect with a read-only API key.

  2. API: create a read-only key

    In AltCoinTrader API settings, generate a key with view-only permissions — never grant trade or withdrawal access.

    In Coinfig, choose AltCoinTrader, paste your credentials, and connect. Coinfig re-syncs trade history automatically every six hours.

  4. CSV: export and upload
