gekko supported exchange for U.S. investors - macktastic - 10-22-2019
Everywhere has been shutting their doors to U.S. accounts lately. My question(s) is will an API from Binance.us work on Gekko or should I start a coinbase pro account and just set the bot to gdax since the gdax api now just forwards you to coinbase pro? Also, are all the bugs worked out with the gdax.js file yet? I heard some chatter about people having trouble executing trades on gdax because of the date or something. Poloniex is shutting it's doors to U.S. based trades next month and I'm basically asking what exchange to trade on as a U.S. investor and please don't say Kraken because I tried them before and they're API was just awful!

I'm from the US as well and I'm very interested in getting an answer to this post.
Thx in advance.

I am trading on Kraken since a few months and have had no issues what so ever. I know in the past they had severe performance problems but they have since rewritten the code and it worked wonders.

Do they have good volume though? If you don't mind me asking, what pairs are you trading and generally how long is it taking for your trades to execute? I would still be very interested in making gekko operable with the new binance.us exchange. I know the main gekko-documentation website has documentation on how to add exchanges but I haven't looked into how involved of a process that would be yet. Thank you for your reply btw

I have no idea what constitutes good volume. When importing, I see around 1000 trades/h. I trade BTC/EUR only so altcoins may be difficult to trade due to low volume. My last trade was yesterday and took approximately 30 seconds;
