Why Can't I Open Positions from Notification Buttons After Connecting My Bybit/OKX Account?
If you're unable to open positions through the notification buttons after connecting your Bybit or OKX account via API keys in Tree Terminal, here are some common causes and solutions:
Possible Causes and Solutions
API Connection Issues:
Cause: Tree Terminal may be unable to fetch your account balance or other account information.
Solution: Restart Tree Terminal after adding your account. This often helps sync the API connection properly.
Anti-Misclick Setting:
Cause: The "anti-misclick" feature prevents trades if the mouse doesn’t move a few pixels before clicking to avoid accidental clicks.
Solution: Disable the "anti-misclick" setting in Tree Terminal’s settings and try again.
Bybit Unified Trading Account (UTA):
Cause: Bybit’s Unified Trading Account may require specific configuration for API functionality to work.
Solution: Check and adjust your UTA settings as outlined in Bybit’s documentation: Bybit Unified Trading Account.
OKX's Margin Setting:
Cause: OKX requires specific configuration for API functionality to work with Tree Terminal
Solution: Ensure that you have configured multi currency margin mode + cross + one way
API Restrictions:
Cause: Restrictions or errors specific to your API setup may prevent functionality.
Solution: Ensure your account is properly configured, and all required API permissions are granted, such as enable-futures.
Additional Troubleshooting Steps
Verify that your API keys are correctly entered and have the necessary permissions for trading and account balance access.
Test the feature on another device or network to rule out local issues.
If the issue persists, gather any error messages and contact Tree Terminal support with details about your setup.
Why Didn't I Receive a Tweet Notification from [Twitter Handle], Even Though I Have Them Enabled?
If you're not receiving tweet notifications from a specific account in Tree Terminal, despite having them enabled, it could be due to the "Filtered" setting.
Possible Cause: 'Filtered' Setting
Cause: The "Filtered" option is turned on for the account. When this setting is enabled, only tweets matching specific filters (e.g., keywords) will trigger notifications.
Solution: Check the "Filtered" column for the account in your settings. If the "Filtered" option is enabled, you can:
Disable "Filtered" to receive all tweets from the account.
Adjust the filters to match tweets you want to be notified about.
Steps to Troubleshoot
Open the settings in Tree Terminal for the account in question.
Look for the "Filtered" toggle in the account's row.
If "Filtered" is enabled:
Disable it if you want to receive all tweets.
Or review and update the filter criteria to ensure relevant tweets match.
Additional Notes
If "Filtered" is off and you're still not receiving notifications, check:
The "Notification" toggle to ensure notifications are enabled.
Your overall notification settings for Tree Terminal and your device.
Why Aren't Notifications Coming Through?
If notifications are not appearing as expected, it’s possible that Focus Mode on the News Feed has been enabled by accident. Focus Mode limits updates to specific feeds or settings, which can block notifications.
How to Fix It
Check if the toggle icon (highlighted in the red box) on the News Feed component is switched on.
If Focus Mode is enabled, click the toggle to disable it and resume receiving all notifications.
Pro Tip
If notifications are still not coming through after disabling Focus Mode:
Verify that your notification sources are active under Settings > Notifications.
Test the feeds using the "Test It!" button to ensure they are configured correctly.
Disabling Focus Mode should resolve the issue and restore real-time notifications to your terminal.
Can I Run More Than 10 TWAPs on ByBit?
Yes, Tree Terminal’s custom TWAP feature is not limited to 10 TWAPs, as it computes the limit order locally and sends it directly to ByBit. Unlike ByBit’s native TWAP system, Tree Terminal’s implementation does not rely on ByBit starting or managing the TWAP.
Key Points:
Custom TWAPs in Tree Terminal:
Tree Terminal computes and manages the TWAP locally, allowing you to run more than 10 TWAPs simultaneously.
ByBit Throttling:
While unlikely, ByBit might throttle requests if too many orders are sent in rapid succession.
Solution: If throttling occurs, space out the start times of your TWAPs slightly to avoid triggering ByBit’s rate limits.
Best Practices:
Always set a maximum size limit for your TWAPs, such as
max_250kormax_1m, to ensure controlled execution.Monitor your TWAPs periodically to ensure they are executing as intended.
How Does Multi-Account Trading Work?
How do I split orders across multiple accounts?
If you have multiple accounts and want to distribute the order equally across them, tick both options in settings > account: ✅ Buy On All Accounts ✅ Split the amount to buy across all accounts simultaneously
Example:
You place a 100k long order.
If you have 4 subaccounts, each will receive 25k of the total order.
If you want to maximize margin usage on each account before moving to the next, only tick the first box: ✅ Buy On All Accounts ❌ Split the amount to buy across all accounts simultaneously
Example:
You place a 10M BTC long order.
First account has 10x leverage and 500k balance, so it will long 5M.
If more size is needed, it will move to the next subaccount, and so on.
What happens if neither option is ticked?
The system will only execute the order on the first account and ignore other accounts.
Example: A 10M BTC long will only fill on the first subaccount (if margin allows) and will not continue to the others.
By selecting the right option based on your strategy, you can control how orders are distributed across your accounts efficiently.
How to Clear Notifications
To remove unwanted notifications, follow these simple steps:
Manually Dismiss Notifications:
Right-click directly on the notification you want to remove.
Use Keyboard Shortcuts:
Navigate to Settings → Shortcuts.
In the search bar, type "Close All Notifications".
Assign your preferred shortcut (e.g.,
Shift + Backspace) to quickly clear all notifications at once.
Optional shortcut settings:
Close Last Notification: Quickly clear only the most recent notification.
Close Oldest Notification: Remove the oldest notification from the list.
Choose the method that best suits your workflow.
