# Proxies
To create a proxy list simply create a new .txt file in the `proxies` folder. Input your proxies into the .txt file.
We will not be recommending a proxy provider.
For best results use AU proxies.
If you are using residential proxies, make sure your list of proxies are long e.g. 10,000.

The bot will not recognise if you have made proxy changes and you will need to restart or reload after making any changes.
{% endhint %}
Example proxies folder
Proxy must be formatted in `ip:port:username:password`
