like so:

export BITMEX_APIKEY=xxxxxxxxxx
export BITMEX_SECRET=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I get the same error.

me too

set "BITMEX_TEST_API" rather then "BITMEX_API", and same for secret. Then run "source ~/.bash_profile" to actually use new variables

[caressgents]

@l8nit3tr0ubl3 would we do the same process to run on main net and not test net just reverse?

[l8nit3tr0ubl3]

what ive done is set both BITMEX_API, and BITMEX_TEST_API in the bash_profile file. Then be sure to run "source ~/.bash_profile" to set the new variables. This should bypass the "len > 0" issue for either testnet or mainnet.

however I have run into more issue after (likely user error)

[haikalfouzi]

fixed the error by running source ~/.bash_profile before running the main.py.
