Bitget users can now connect their accounts to Tiger.com , a professional desktop trading terminal built for active and intraday traders. Tiger.com supports cryptocurrencies, stocks, futures, and Forex from a single workspace, with tools like customizable Depth of Market (DOM) views, cluster and footprint charts, over 60 technical indicators, and built-in risk management. Connect your Bitget account through a simple API setup and start trading spot and futures directly from Tiger.com's interface.

Get your API key and passphrase on Bitget

4. On the API keys page, click Create API key on the right. Select System-generated API key.

5. Enter an API name and set a passphrase (this is created by you and cannot be recovered). In the Permissions section, select Read-Write. Then activate the checkboxes for the permissions you need, such as Spot and Futures trading.

6. Enter the verification codes from your email and Google Authenticator to confirm.

7. Your API key, secret key, and passphrase will appear on the next page. Copy and store this information securely right away. The secret key will only be shown once.

Security tips: To protect your assets, never share your API key, secret key, or passphrase with anyone. Bitget staff will never ask for them. API keys are created for a unified trading account, so one connection setup covers both spot and futures trading.

For more details, refer to Bitget's API documentation .

What you can do with Tiger.com and Bitget

Once connected, you can use Tiger.com's full suite of trading tools with your Bitget account. Here is what the platform offers:

Advanced charting. Tiger.com includes candlestick, line, bar, area, and cluster (footprint) charts. The footprint view shows volume distribution within each bar, helping you identify where buyers and sellers are active. Over 60 technical indicators are available, and you can combine indicators for custom analysis.

Depth of Market (DOM). The dynamic DOM displays real-time bid and ask levels with extensive customization options. You can place, adjust, and cancel orders directly from the DOM. Additional sections show your open positions, financial results, and a trade feed with volume analysis.

Chart trading. Place orders directly from the chart using your mouse. Limit and stop orders can be set visually, and defensive strategies (stop-loss, take-profit) can be configured to execute automatically when an order fills.

Risk management. Built-in risk management tools let you set limits on maximum losses, position sizes, and daily drawdown. This is useful for traders who want to enforce discipline during active sessions.

Simulator and playback. Tiger.com includes a training simulator for demo trading on live data and a strategy playback tool that lets you replay historical market conditions. Both are helpful for testing strategies before using real funds.

Multi-asset workspace. Beyond crypto, Tiger.com supports stocks, futures, options, and Forex. You can set up multiple monitors and create custom workspace layouts tailored to your trading style.
