Let me know what you think. Trying to get back in the swing of things. All feedback is appreciated!

[MeerkatMatt]

awesome dude thank you! i been using AI etc to learn all this, but seeing someone do it on video and share their experience is super helpful too

[X_x_kingfisher_x_X]

It took me one day, but worth it!!
Super content!! Thanks!!

[testchannel]

Amazing content, much better than the docs. It's actually the step you need in order to be able to navigate the docs... if you start reading the documentation only from scratch, you may go crazy on the way.

[mrayoubamrani]

Great video and it's covering all important aspects

[oldmemorieshub]

Thank you, the tutorial is very informative

[serhiua]

Thanks for the clear explanations!
One question only - how to find the source of this tutorial?

[junaidnazir]

Thankyou very much, this helped alot...

[splendorwhite]

The websocket stream will be shut down by the server after a while. When the server send a Ping, the client should send a Pong to keep the stream alive. But how can we do it with websockets?

[DominicJI]

Hi, thank you so much. It's really helpful. But I was stuck in checking the account balance. When I type client.get_account(), it said Invalid API-key, IP, or permissions for action. I'm sure the ip is on the whitelist. Is there any advice on what happened.

[proudutlud]

Hi, important question, I'm stuck at the begginig after installing all necessary pips I get a 'False' feedback from the:

import pandas as pd
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()

What can I do to make it give 'True', before it gave me the traceback error that the module/s were missing but now they are all properly identified and I get False. i dont know what to do please help!

Thanks!

[ventor]

Is it possible to constantly receive account status via websocket? Or just the crypto price?

[FilippoDePadova]

[RammohanReddy-fpre]

need help with binance Option chain for BTCUSD - in dataframe python

[Yassou]

hi ! and thank you very much for this tutorial, could explain how you can get resistance and support since the API dont supply the 'full order book' but 'only' 5000 orders. ? THanks =)

[mkaz]

A lot of API calls are requiring the timestamp.
How do you provide the timestamp and where ?

[johngnip]

Nice tutorial and website. Can you please share how to properly handle the websocket stream going "dead" after some time (10 minutes to 2 hours - it just stops streaming). I would assume we need to respond to the Ping, - and I get the ping in the program, but what is the correct structure/call to respond with a "Pong"?

[mo.downhill]

info = client.get_account()
print(info)
gives me the following error:
inanceAPIException: APIError(code=-2015): Invalid API-key, IP, or permissions for action.
