# ICONOMI

Connect ICONOMI to rotki to import your strategy trades and balances. rotki uses a read-only API key signed from your machine.

## Features

- Strategy buys and sells imported as swap events from your ICONOMI activity.
- Balance reconciliation across your ICONOMI strategies and free assets.

## Limitations

- Only buy and sell activity is imported as trades; plain deposits and withdrawals are not retrieved.
- Margin and derivatives history is not imported.

## Setup

1. In ICONOMI, open Settings → API Keys → Generate new key.
2. Set the scope to read-only and leave trade-creation permissions off.
3. In rotki, open API Keys → Exchanges → Add ICONOMI and paste the key and secret.

## FAQ

### Where are my ICONOMI API keys sent?

rotki is a local application: your ICONOMI API key is stored on your computer and used to sign each request, which goes directly from your machine to ICONOMI's API. No rotki-operated server ever sees the key or the request.

### Can rotki place trades on ICONOMI?

No. rotki only requests read-only scopes and never sends trade calls.
