Limit Orders

Limit orders let you set a predetermined entry price for a trade — the order executes automatically when the market reaches your level.


Step 1: Switch to Limit Mode

  1. Navigate to the trading page

  2. Switch from "Market" to "Limit" order type

Step 2: Configure Your Order

  1. Set Price: Enter your desired execution price (at least 0.1% away from the current price)

  2. Set Size: Specify position size and leverage

  3. Review Details: Confirm order parameters in the panel readout

Step 3: Submit Order

  1. Click "Place Limit Order" and confirm

  2. The order appears in the Orders tab under Limit Orders

Viewing Your Orders

  • All active limit orders appear in the "Orders" tab under "Limit Orders" with market, side, size, collateral, and trigger price

Editing Orders

  1. Select the order you want to modify in the Orders tab

  2. Edit Trigger Price and confirm the change

Order Cancellation

  • Manual Cancellation: Cancel orders anytime from the Orders tab

  • Automatic Cancellation: An order cancels if the pool cannot accommodate it at execution time

  • Independent of Positions: Limit orders remain active even after other positions close — cancel them yourself if no longer wanted


Execution Rules

Order executes when

  • Market price reaches your specified level

  • Sufficient liquidity is available in the pool

  • Pool utilization allows for the trade size

Order cancels when

  • Pool utilization prevents execution of the full size

  • The pool cannot accommodate the order at trigger time

Standard trading fees and trade spread apply to limit orders exactly as they do to market orders.
