Release Notes - Version 0.19.0

🚀 Welcome to hummingbot version 0.19.0! In this release, we focused on working and testing upcoming connectors along with addressing identified and reported bugs.

📊 Important update on UI

  • We have created a consistent interface for all trading pairs on different exchanges, which means when you configure your bot, You can enter "BASE-QUOTE" (e.g. ETH-USDT) for your trading pair input on any exchange.

However, this means you have to edit all of your old config files and replace any trading_pair / symbol inputs to the new format.

🤓 Developer usability

  • Tutorial for creating custom strategies now has its own dedicated section. It is currently a work-in-progress but you can check out the initial parts here.
  • Architecture section that includes additional details for adding new connectors.
  • Added detailed examples to Building Connectors in using aioconsole for testing.
