Alpha Pro connects to OKX through a trade-only API key. Create the key inside your dedicated space (guide: Create your trading subaccount).
WARNING: Never enable Withdrawal permissions on your API key. Alpha Pro only ever needs to read and trade — nothing else.
Step 1 — Create the key
- In your OKX account, go to the API management page and click Create API key.
- Fill out the form:
- API Key Name — e.g. "Alpha Pro".
- Purpose → API Trading.
- Account → your dedicated sub-account.
- Permissions → enable Trade.
- Create a secure Passphrase and save it — you'll enter it in the Sequence wizard along with the key. Neither OKX nor Sequence can recover a lost passphrase; you'd need a new key.
Step 2 — Add the IP whitelist
In the IP restriction section, add these addresses — comma-separated, without spaces:
35.208.74.51,35.223.192.192,34.66.216.238,34.124.198.188,34.44.217.135
Note: these IPs authorize Alpha Pro to trade on your behalf while blocking anyone else — and an IP-bound key never expires.
Step 3 — Confirm and save your key
- Complete the 2FA verification and click Confirm. In the modal, click Show Info.
- Copy your API Key and API Secret before leaving the screen.
Important: save the API Key, Secret AND Passphrase now — the secret and passphrase are not shown again.
What's next
With your key created, return to the setup guide and enter it in the Sequence wizard: How to get started and set up Alpha Pro.
