TradingBot Template

Configurable crypto trading assistant template with MCP integrations.

Architecture

Component	Purpose
bybit-mcp/	Local MCP server for market data and trading actions
.mcp.json.example	MCP client configuration template
CONTEXT.md	Public-safe session context template
trade_log.md	Public-safe trade journal template

Quick start

1. Copy .env.example to .env and add your own keys.
2. Install local MCP server dependencies:
   • cd bybit-mcp && npm install
3. Copy .mcp.json.example to .mcp.json.
4. Confirm .env, .mcp.json, and secret files are ignored by git.
5. Start your MCP client and use the configured bybit / coinmarketcap tools.

Security / No Secrets

Never commit:

• API keys, secrets, tokens
• Wallet balances or exchange account screenshots
• Exact order IDs and personal trade history

Checklist before every push:

1. git --no-pager status
2. git --no-pager diff --staged
3. Ensure .env and .mcp.json are not tracked
4. Confirm CONTEXT.md and trade_log.md contain only template/public data

Demo scenarios

1. Market summary: get CMC global context + Bybit price/orderbook/klines, then build one consolidated market view.
2. Paper-trade mode: set BYBIT_DRY_RUN=true to simulate trading actions without sending real orders.
