Preset Stop-limit order

It should be distinguished from stop-limit order, the usage scenarios of the two are different.

What is preset stop-limit order?

When you have a position, you can set a stop-limit order at [Position Stop-Limit Order], but when the position has not been opened, how to set a stop-limit order for the position that is about to be opened? At this time, you need to use the preset stop-limit order.

A preset stop-limit order is to set a stop-limit order while filling in the opening order. When the opening order opens a position, set a stop-limit order for this position.

How to use it?

In the order area, check ‘Stop-Limit Order' to set it.

Execution logic

The preset stop-limit order is an OTO (One Trigger One) order. An OTO order is when a main order triggers the submission of a subsidiary order.

1. Submit preset stop-limit orders

When submitting a position opening order (limit order or market order), you will submit a preset stop-limit order if you choose the stop-limit option. The preset stop-limit order consists of three orders:

Main order
-Order price/market price
-Quantity
Take-profit order
-Take-profit trigger price
-Take-profit order price/market price
Stop-loss order
-Stop-loss trigger price
-Stop-loss order price/market price

Therefore, when submitting a preset stop-limit order, in addition to the parameters of the main order, parameters such as the trigger price and the order price of the stop-limit order should also be submitted.

The stop-limit trigger price must meet the following rules before submission:

Open a position with a limit price

Open a position with a market price

Open Long Position - Take-profit order

Trigger price > Min(main order limit price, ask one price)

Trigger price > Ask one price

Open Long Position - Stop -loss Order

Trigger price < Min (main order limit price, ask one price)

Trigger Price < Ask one price

Open Short Position - Take-profit Order

Trigger price < Max (main order limit price, bid one price)

Trigger Price < Bid one price

Open Short Position - Stop-loss Order

Trigger price > Max(main order limit price, bid one price))

Trigger price > Bid one price

2. The preset stop-limit order has been submitted, waiting for the transaction

After the order is submitted, it will be displayed in the 'Current Order', because the preset stop-limit order is essentially an ordinary order, but with the stop-limit information attached.

For orders in this state, the stop-limit order will display 'not effective', which means that the stop-limit order has not been submitted and is waiting for the main order to be completed.

When the main order is completed, the stop-limit will display "effective", which means that the stop-limit order has been placed according to the parameters set at the beginning.

3. After the main order is completed, place a stop-loss order

When the main order is executed and a position with the same direction as the order is formed, the stop-limit order will be submitted according to the previously set parameters. The quantity of the stop-limit order is the quantity of the main order. The quantity of market stop-limit orders is the number of complete transactions.

Example: Player A submitted a limit order to buy 1 BTC at 10,000 USDT, with a stop-limit attached. When the order is executed and a position is formed, the system will automatically set a stop-limit order with a quantity of 1 BTC for this position, no matter how much the order is executed. And if I submit a market order to buy 1 BTC long, after the market order is completed. The system will set a stop-limit order for the position according to the actual transaction quantity of the order.

4. The stop-limit order has been submitted, waiting to be triggered

After the stop-limit order is submitted, the subsequent execution logic is the take-profit logic of the ordinary position stop-limit order.

For details, see Stop-Limit Order.
