Crypto Trading Bot Incident Recovery: The Production Runbook
When running automated futures trading algorithms, systemic failure is not a matter of if, but when. This runbook establishes institutional response protocols for exchange API dropouts, rate limit locks, and VPS crashes.
1. SEV-1 Emergency: Unhedged Position Resolution
If an API timeout leaves a filled position without an active STOP_MARKET order, the risk daemon immediately auto-heals by querying the exchange order book and submitting a native stop trigger at Entry - 2.0 * ATR.
2. Emergency Terminal Kill-Switch Command
# Instantly cancel non-trigger orders & freeze new entries for 12 hours:
python3 evaluate_risk.py --emergency-freeze
3. VPS Crash & Automatic Systemd Recovery
Because all stop losses are registered directly on the Binance matching engine, your open positions remain 100% hedged even if your VPS experiences complete kernel panic or hardware restart.
