cexbot needs to know your username, API key and secret.

Configuration options are specified with the config command line option.

$ cexbot-cli config --list
cex.username = nikcub
cex.secret = secret
cex.apikey = api

Set each config option with:

cexbot-cli config cex.username nikcub

and then set your api key and secret:

cexbot-cli config cex.apikey <your_key>

cexbot-cli config cex.secret <your_secret>
