Does OKX Have a Trading Bot? Yes - All Your Options
OKX ships its own grid and DCA bots inside the exchange - free, no third-party keys. If you need more (TradingView signals, arbitrage, cross-exchange), several independent platforms connect to OKX too.

Native bots inside OKX
OKX's built-in bots run server-side at the exchange: no API key handover, no subscription. Coverage and bot types vary (grid, DCA, some futures variants) - the current feature set is documented in the OKX bot hub.
Third-party platforms on OKX
If you want TradingView webhooks, multi-exchange portfolios or custom strategies, cloud platforms (3Commas, Bitsgap, Cryptohopper, WunderTrading, Coinrule, Altrady) and self-hosted frameworks (Freqtrade, Gunbot, Hummingbot) all connect via OKX's API. Then the API key security guide applies in full: trade-only, IP-whitelisted keys.

Can I run a bot on OKX without API keys?
