Before adding a BitMEX user, review the following help sections:

• BitMEX API Credentials
• BitMEX Set Up Requirements

To configure user access to BitMEX:

1. Click the Users | Exchanges tab for a user selected in the data grid.
2. Click the exchange list drop down arrow, and scroll to and select an exchange.

3. Configure the following Order Routing settings:

   

   • Key ID — Sets the API key generated by BitMEX. This is a required field.
   • Key Secret — Sets the API key secret generated by BitMEX. This is a required field.

4. Click the Market Data tab to allow or deny access to market data for the following product groups:

   

   • All Market Data — Click either radio button to Allow or Deny access to all market data available from the exchange.
   • Sessions — Sets how many simultaneous market data sessions the user can have active using different IP Addresses/Applications. Delay Only: Indicates that market data is denied in all environments except the delayed environment, which does not have access to real-time market data.
5. Click the SDK Client Market Data tab to allow or deny access to the market data groups available at the exchange for TT .NET SDK Client Side trading applications.

   If you click Allow to enable a market data group, configure the Sessions field as follows:

   • If using only TT .NET SDK Client Side application keys, then set Sessions equal to the number of application keys you plan to run concurrently.
   • If using only TT .NET SDK Client Side - Non-display application keys, then set Sessions equal to "0" and check the Non-display checkbox, which indicates the market data is for non-display purposes (e.g., black-box algorithm, automated program for calculating P/L, etc.) as defined by the exchange.
   • If using both TT .NET SDK Client Side and TT .NET SDK Client Side - Non-display application keys, then set Sessions equal to the number of TT .NET SDK Client Side application keys that you plan to run concurrently and check the Non-display checkbox.

   If you are distributing the market data externally (e.g., to users outside of your company), check the External Distribution checkbox.

   Note: Any product groups that are disabled have not been authorized for your company. Please contact a Trading Technologies representative to enable them.

   

6. Click the FIX and SDK Server Market Data tab to allow or deny access to the market data groups available at the exchange for TT FIX, TT .NET SDK Server Side, and TT Core SDK trading applications.

   If you click Allow to enable a market data group, click Quantity to set the number of users viewing the market data behind the FIX feed or the number of TT .NET SDK Server Side or TT Core SDK applications using the data concurrently.

   If the FIX feed or SDK server-side trading application is for non-display purposes (e.g., black-box algorithm, program for calculating P/L, etc.) as defined by the exchange, click Allow to enable the market data group, set the Quantity, and check Non-display.

   If you are distributing the market data externally (e.g., to users outside of your company), check the External Distribution checkbox.

   Note: Any product groups that are disabled have not been authorized for your company. Please contact a Trading Technologies representative to enable them.
