If your bot is not behaving as expected, work through the relevant issue below. For deeper investigation, see the full troubleshooting guide.
Symptoms: The bot exits immediately after launch or never initializes.Steps to resolve:
  1. Verify that you have accepted the Terms of Service during setup. In Telegram, send /start, select Configurations, and confirm acceptTosAndStart is set to true. The bot will not start without this.
  2. Confirm your Binance API Key and Secret Key are correctly entered in the deployment configuration.
  3. Confirm that your API keys have the required Binance permissions: Spot & Margin Trading must be enabled, and IP restrictions must include your server’s static IP.
  4. Check the bot logs for specific error messages.
Symptoms: The bot runs but places no buy orders.Steps to resolve:
  1. Verify the trading pair (e.g., PEPE/USDC) exists on Binance Spot.
  2. Check that your USDC balance meets the investmentPerBuy threshold.
  3. Ensure you have enough BNB in your account to cover trading fees.
  4. Review your buyPercentage setting. If it is set too high, the required price drop to trigger a buy may rarely occur.
  5. Confirm your license balance is above zero — if depleted, new buys are paused after the grace period.
Symptoms: The bot buys successfully but does not place corresponding sell orders.Steps to resolve:
  1. Lower your sellActivateDistancePercentage. If it is too high, the price needs to drop further before sell orders activate.
  2. Review sellCancelDistancePercentage. A value set too low may cause sell orders to be cancelled before they execute.
  3. Check the bot logs to confirm sell order placement attempts and any error responses from Binance.
Symptoms: The bot stops placing new buy orders.What happens:
  • When your license balance reaches zero, there is a 24-hour grace period during which the bot continues normal operation.
  • After the grace period, new buy orders are paused.
  • Existing open positions and sell orders continue to execute normally — you will not lose open trades.
To resume buying:Top up your balance via @unCodedPayment_bot in Telegram. See License system for step-by-step instructions.
Symptoms: Fees are cutting into profits more than expected.Steps to resolve:
  1. Switch your quoteAsset to USDC. Consistent USDC trading volume qualifies you for Binance VIP1 status, which reduces maker and taker fees significantly.
  2. Maintain a BNB balance in your Binance account. Enabling the BNB fee discount in Binance settings gives you a 25% reduction on trading fees.
  3. Review your configuration for unnecessarily frequent trades with very small profit targets, which can erode returns through accumulated fees.
