#NODEBinanceTGE To work with Node.js and the Binance API, especially for tasks like trading (which is often what “TGE” refers to in crypto — Token Generation Event — though it might be a typo for "trade"), you typically use the Binance API through a Node.js wrapper library.
Let’s break it down step-by-step:
---
✅ 1. Install Node.js and NPM
Make sure Node.js and npm (Node Package Manager) are installed.
node -v
npm -v
If not installed: https://nodejs.org
---
✅ 2. Create a Project Directory
mkdir binance-trade-bot
cd binance-trade-bot
npm init -y
---
✅ 3. Install Binance Node.js Library
Use a Binance API wrapper like node-binance-api:
npm install node-binance-api
---
✅ 4. Get Your Binance API Keys
Go to your Binance account.
Enable API Management.
Create a new API key pair.
Important: Keep your API key and secret safe.
---
✅ 5. Write a Basic Trade Script
Create a file: index.js
const Binance = require('node-binance-api');
const binance = new Binance().options({
APIKEY: 'your_api_key_here',
APISECRET: 'your_api_secret_here'
});
// Example: Get BTC/USDT price
binance.prices('BTCUSDT', (error, ticker) => {
console.log("Price of BTC: ", ticker.BTCUSDT);
});
// Example: Market Buy Order
// binance.marketBuy("BTCUSDT", 0.001, (error, response) => {
// console.log("Buy response", response);
// console.log("Order ID: " + response.orderId);
// });
To run:
node index.js
---
✅ 6. Common Binance Functions
Action Code
Check account info binance.balance(console.log);
Get market prices binance.prices(console.log);
Buy crypto binance.marketBuy("BTCUSDT", 0.01);
Sell crypto binance.marketSell("BTCUSDT", 0.01);
---
✅ 7. Error Handling and Rate Limits
Always check Binance’s rate limits: https://binance-docs.github.io/apidocs/spot/en/#limits
Use .catch() or try...catch for async functions
Consider using setInterval() to automate trades or fetch data periodically
---
Optional: Using WebSockets (Live Price Feeds)
binance.websockets.trades(['BTCUSDT'], (trades) => {
let {e:eventType, E:eventTime, s:symbol, p:price, q:quantity, m:isBuyerMaker} = trades;
console.log(symbol+" trade update. price: "+price+", quantity: "+quantity);
});

What Do You Mean by “TGE”?
If by “TGE” you mean something other than Token Generation Event, or if it's part of a specific Binance feature (like Launchpad), please clarify and I’ll tailor the answer.$BTC
