Delta Exchange
OpenAlgo's deltaexchange plugin is the repository's crypto-derivatives adapter. Its plugin.json declares broker type crypto, exchange CRYPTO, and leverage configuration support. The adapter maps supported Delta Exchange order, account, data, and streaming operations into OpenAlgo's normalized interfaces.
Product availability, fees, settlement, API-key requirements, and account eligibility are controlled by Delta Exchange and can change. OpenAlgo does not provide legal or tax classification; verify current exchange documentation and the rules that apply to your location before trading.
API Key Registration
To integrate OpenAlgo with Delta Exchange India, you need to generate an API key from within your Delta Exchange account. The API key serves as the authentication mechanism for all programmatic trading requests.
Step 1 – Log in to Delta Exchange India
Visit delta.exchange and log in to your account using your Gmail and password
Step 2 – Navigate to AlgoHub → APIs
Once logged in, click on the AlgoHub menu in the top navigation bar. From the dropdown, select APIs ("Create API key and Start Trading"). This takes you to the Delta Exchange API landing page where you can manage your API keys.
Step 3 – Create a New API Key
Click the Create API Key button on the API page. You will be taken to the API key creation form at delta.exchange/app/account/manageapikeys . Fill in the following details:
Account Name – Select Main (or the sub-account you want the key associated with)
API Key Name – Enter a recognisable name, e.g., openalgo
Whitelisted IP – Enter the IP address of your OpenAlgo server. Only whitelisted IPs will be permitted to interact with the trading API. Add the IP and select it from the IPs to whitelist dropdown.
Permissions – Enable both:
Read Data – Enabled by default for all API keys
Trading – Must be explicitly selected to allow order placement
Step 4 – Save the API Key and Secret
After submitting the form, Delta Exchange will display your API Key and API Secret. Copy and store them securely — the secret will not be shown again. Add them to your OpenAlgo .env file as follows:
The Delta Exchange plugin supports automated crypto-derivatives workflows where the connected account and instrument are available. Protect API credentials, use the exchange's current network controls, handle API failures explicitly, and test with the exchange's test environment before live use. Users remain responsible for verifying the legal, tax, and account rules that apply to their location and activity.
