Connect to an exchange
Connecting your Nicky account to an exchange, requires two steps. First you need to create a set of API keys on your exchange account. Secondly you need to add those keys in the settings area in Nicky.
1. Create or find API details
Depending on what exchange you are using, this is done differently. Please find and read through the guide matching your exchange. Follow the guide to get the API details you need. Remember that the private key is only shown once, when you create it. Make sure to copy the details, and store those in a safe place.
