+# Gitea Setup Instructions
+
+## Step 1: Create Access Token
+1. Login to Gitea: https://git.fetcherpay.com
+2. Click your profile (top right) → Settings
+3. Go to "Applications" tab
+4. Generate Token:
+   - Token Name: `mql-trading-bots`
+   - Scopes: Check `repo` (full repository access)
+5. Copy the token (starts with something like `a1b2c3...`)
+
+## Step 2: Create Repository via API
+
+Run this command with your token:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST "http://10.152.183.192:3000/api/v1/user/repos" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -H "Authorization: token YOUR_TOKEN_HERE" \
+  -d '{
+    "name": "mql-trading-bots",
+    "description": "MetaTrader 4/5 Expert Advisors - MultiSignal Confluence Trading System",
+    "private": true,
+    "auto_init": false
+  }'
+```
+
+## Step 3: Add Remote and Push
+
+```bash
+cd ~/mql-trading-bots
+
+# Add Gitea remote
+git remote add origin http://10.152.183.192:3000/garfield/mql-trading-bots.git
+
+# Or use SSH if configured:
+# git remote add origin git@git.fetcherpay.com:garfield/mql-trading-bots.git
+
+# Push to Gitea
+git push -u origin master
+```
+
