AsterDEX makes a separate trading-only key that can trade but cannot move money out. Not available in the United States.
Step by step
Getting your AsterDEX API keys
- 1Open AsterDEX and connect your walletAsterDEX is not available in the United States. Use Rabby, MetaMask, or another EVM wallet.
- 2Sign in (no gas)Your wallet pops up a verification message. Approve it — no gas fee required.
- 3Turn on trading for this walletIf the right-side order panel asks you to enable trading, tap to enable. One-time step per wallet.
- 4Tap "Create API Key" and name itUse "Soar" or any label of your choice.
Soar - 5Tap "Generate"AsterDEX creates a separate trading-only key. Your main wallet stays untouched.
- 6Set permissions and validity
- Turn ON: Perps trading
- Optional: Read access (for balance queries)
- Validity: pick the maximum (365 days) for a real bot
- 7Authorize in your main walletTap "Authorize". Your main wallet pops up an on-chain confirmation. Tap to approve.
- 8Copy all three valuesAsterDEX returns: Main Wallet Address + Trading Key Address + API Secret. Copy all three — the secret is shown ONCE only. Max 30 keys per account.
Permissions
What to enable — and what to leave OFF
✓Enable these
- Perps trading
- Read access
✕Never enable these
- (AsterDEX has no "withdraw" option — by design)
Why this matters:Soar only ever needs read + place-order permissions. If you give a key withdraw or transfer access, anyone with that key could move funds — including a security risk if your machine is ever compromised. Disabling withdraw on the key itself means even a worst-case leak can't drain your account.

Security & trust
Where your keys live
Soar passes your AsterDEXkeys straight from your browser into YOUR Cloudflare Worker. Soar's servers see them once during the ~30-second deploy window, then never again.
The bot that talks to AsterDEX runs on the free Cloudflare Workers tier in your own Cloudflare account. You see + control everything from your Cloudflare dashboard. You can rotate the keys, pause the bot, or destroy the Worker at any time — Soar has zero ability to undo that.
