Can You Whitelist TradersPost IPs for the Binance API?
TradersPost does not support Binance IP whitelisting because its infrastructure does not use static IP addresses, and there are no immediate plans to add static IP support.

Earlier versions mentioned a planned rollout of static IP addresses. There are no immediate plans for static IP support, so that language has been removed.
Current Status of IP Whitelisting for Binance
At this time, TradersPost does not support IP whitelisting for Binance API connections. The reason is that TradersPost's current infrastructure does not use static IP addresses, meaning the IP can change unexpectedly, which could disrupt API connections if whitelisted.
There are no immediate plans to add static IP support, so leave IP restrictions off on the Binance API key you use with TradersPost.
Why IP Whitelisting Matters
IP whitelisting adds an extra layer of security to your Binance API connection by restricting API access to specific IP addresses. Without static IPs from TradersPost, enabling IP whitelisting would cause connection failures when TradersPost's IP address changes.
Alternatives to IP whitelisting
While IP whitelisting is not available, you can still secure your Binance API connection by:
- Limiting API permissions: Only enable the permissions your trading strategy requires
- Using API key restrictions: Set up other available restrictions in Binance
- Monitoring API activity: Regularly check your Binance API usage logs
Conclusion
For now, TradersPost does not support Binance IP whitelisting. Leave IP restrictions off on the API key and use the other Binance key restrictions to limit what it can do.
