I think this one is also often popping up:
* [How do I update zenbot?]
docker: git pull && docker-compose down && docker rmi zenbot_server && docker-compose build && docker-compose up -d
standalone: git pull && npm install && ./zenbot.sh trade --paper

I'm curious; what is the ./zenbot.sh trade --paper
used for? To test that it is working?

Yep, the paper mode uses live data to simulate trades. Sim uses history data.

Very happy to see this being made! Definitely something that will need to be added to the README.md
as a link as well, as stickied to the Discord #general topic.

a lot

**Why does Zenbot use Limit orders by default?** <a name="limit-orders"></a> | ||
|

On most exchanges, Limit orders result in lower fees than Market orders. For instance, on GDAX there no fee for a Limit order trade compared to a 0.25% (BTC) or 0.3% (ETH & LTC) trade fee on a Market order. |

Not sure if FAQ-worthy: perhaps give a bit more info about the difference between limit order (maker) and market order (taker)?

**Why do I keep getting this "Nonce" error? How do I solve it?** <a name="error-1"></a> | ||

This error may occur when multiple instances of Zenbot are used with the same API key. To avoid this, use a different API key for each concurrent instance of Zenbot. |

It is also possible that the server's time is not current, you could install NTP to solve this.
