HTX Trading Bot, explained.
An HTX trading bot automates spot trading on your HTX (formerly Huobi) account. You design the strategy in VolatiCloud — visually with 27 indicators or in Freqtrade Python — backtest it on real HTX data, and a managed cloud runner executes it through a trade-only API key.
HTX is one of the longest-running Asia-focused exchanges, trading since its early days as Huobi. On VolatiCloud it connects for spot trading, and the appeal is steadiness: a mature venue, systematic rules, and a bot that never sleeps through a setup.
From idea to a running bot.
Connecting HTX takes a couple of minutes and never gives us withdrawal rights — you create a trade-only API key, paste it in, and your funds stay on HTX.
Create a HTX API key
In your HTX account, create an API key with trading enabled and withdrawals disabled. We recommend an IP allow-list and a withdrawal whitelist for defence in depth.
Connect it to VolatiCloud
Paste the key and secret into VolatiCloud. Credentials are encrypted at the field level with AES-256-GCM and never logged in plaintext — optional passphrase E2EE and BYOK let you hold the key yourself.
Build or import a strategy
Design entry and exit logic in the visual builder with 27 indicators, or paste a Freqtrade strategy.py into Code Mode, then backtest it on real HTX spot history.
Go live or dry-run
Promote the strategy to a managed runner that trades HTX 24/7, or run it in dry-run mode on live prices first. Monitor fills, PnL and drawdown with email and in-app alerts.
Built for the way you trade.
Whether you already trade on HTX by hand or you are migrating a self-hosted Freqtrade bot, VolatiCloud runs it for you.
HTX traders going hands-free
Automate the strategy you already run on HTX so it executes around the clock — backtested first, then live, without watching charts.
Freqtrade users on HTX
Move a self-hosted HTX bot off your VPS. The engine is Freqtrade itself, so your existing HTX strategy runs unchanged on managed infrastructure.

Frequently asked questions.
Is the HTX bot non-custodial?
Yes. Your assets always stay in your HTX account. VolatiCloud connects through a trade-only API key and places orders on your behalf — we never take custody, and we recommend disabling withdrawals on the key entirely.
Can I trade HTX futures with VolatiCloud?
Not on HTX — VolatiCloud supports spot trading on HTX. Perpetual futures are available on Binance, Bybit, OKX, MyOKX, Bitget, Gate.io, Kraken and Hyperliquid, and margin trading on Binance.
Can I backtest before trading live on HTX?
Yes, and we strongly recommend it. Every strategy can be backtested on real HTX historical data with win rate, Sharpe, Sortino, max drawdown and profit factor, or run in dry-run mode on live HTX prices before risking capital.
