How to Connect Pi42 to AlgoPulse

Pi42 is a FIU-registered, INR-settled crypto futures exchange based in India. If you want your algo trading profits (and losses) in INR rather than USDT, Pi42 is the natural choice.

1. Generate the API key on Pi42

1. Log in to pi42.com. Go to Profile → API Management → Create Key
2. Name it 'AlgoPulse' so you can identify it later
3. Permissions: enable Trading. Leave Withdrawals OFF.
4. Copy the API Key and Secret immediately, the Secret is shown only once

2. Add it in AlgoPulse

1. Brokers → Add Broker → Pi42
2. Give it a nickname like 'pi42-inr'
3. Paste API Key and Secret
4. Connect

AlgoPulse fetches your INR margin balance to verify the connection. A successful connection shows a green Connected badge and your available INR.
