About MeowQuant

You want to run quant on OKX with a bot or the API, but a wall of jargon and permission settings keeps you out — apiKey, Passphrase, grid range, a lead trader's win rate. Each word makes sense on its own, but strung together you don't know where to begin. MeowQuant is here to help you get these working, one step at a time: every action broken down so you can follow along and reproduce it, with the pitfalls we hit flagged for you ahead of time.

Who we are

MeowQuant is an independent third-party information site, run and maintained by the MeowQuant editorial desk. We are not OKX official, and we have no affiliation, agency or partnership with it. What we do is narrow on purpose: take "doing quant and strategy trading on OKX" and explain it to the point where a beginner can actually get started.

The editorial desk is an institutional identity, not one person's real name on the masthead. That's not about hiding — it's because the content is written, checked and revised together. The code, parameters and error handling in a single article may have been tested and reviewed by more than one person. We'd rather put the collective's name to it than build up a persona.

What we do

We only write about quant and strategy trading on OKX, roughly in these areas:

• Getting started and sign-up: from signing up for OKX and verifying ID to enabling API access you can trade with — every step before the trade, explained in full.
• API and quant hands-on: connecting to OKX in Python (ccxt), checking balances, placing and cancelling orders, handling errors and building risk control — with code you can copy straight in.
• Strategy trading: grid bots, DCA, copy trading, the strategy marketplace — how to set parameters, how to choose, how to review.
• Comparison and judgment: such as OKX or Binance for quant, laying out the differences from a user's point of view.

One principle runs through everything: if we haven't done it ourselves, we don't write it. We test strategies with small money on the demo account and with real funds, we actually run the code, and we actually review the parameters. Those "tested" markers in the articles record exactly what day, with what parameters, and with what result. That's also the biggest thing separating us from sites that just reword the official docs and paste them.

How we make money

Plainly: this site makes money from affiliate promotion. When you sign up for OKX and trade through our referral code OK30001, or by clicking a sign-up button on this site (via the redirect page /go/okx.html), we may receive a promotional fee from OKX. OKX pays that fee — it adds nothing to your cost, and your own fees don't go up because of it.

We don't keep this quiet. How it does and doesn't affect the content, we've written a whole page on — see the affiliate disclosure. In short: the rebate doesn't get us to overstate OKX's upsides or hide its risks; wherever we ought to remind you that "derivatives can wipe out your principal," we don't cut a single word.

What we won't do

• We are not OKX official. What you see here is a third party's compilation and testing; the platform's rules, fees and services follow what OKX currently publishes on its own site.
• We don't manage money for you and we don't touch your funds. We won't ask for your money, won't operate your account, won't ask for your API credentials. Anyone asking you to hand over credentials or funds is not us.
• We don't call trades, lead trades, or sell signals. We write about how strategies are built and how to read parameters, but we don't tell you "buy this now." No paid groups, no "inside information."
• We don't promise returns. Quant, bots and copy trading don't guarantee profit, and past performance doesn't predict the future. Any claim of guaranteed gains, capital protection or fixed returns has nothing to do with us.

Editorial and corrections principles

We get things wrong. Tutorial content goes stale especially fast — a platform changes its back end, a library renames a field, a fee gets adjusted. When we're wrong we don't delete the post and pretend it never happened; we correct it in the open: which line changed, why, and when, all logged in corrections so you can check it yourself.

If you find a piece that's wrong, out of date, or has a better approach, write to us: [email protected]. We've also spelled out what we can and can't help with on the contact page — in short, we don't give investment advice tailored to your situation.
