FAQs

📊 What is an open limit order?

An open limit order is a trade you’ve placed at a specific price that hasn’t yet executed. It remains “open” until the market reaches your limit price or you cancel it.

💻📱 Can I view open limit orders on both desktop and mobile?

Yes! Your open orders are visible on the Exchange Platform (web/desktop) and the Mobile App.

✏️ Can I edit or cancel open limit orders?

Yes, you can adjust the price, size, or add a comment to your order, or cancel it entirely if your strategy changes.

🔄 What does it mean if my limit order is partially filled?

A partially filled order means only part of your order has executed because there weren’t enough matching orders at your limit price. The remaining amount stays open until it can be filled.

⚠️ Why isn’t my open limit order executing immediately?

Limit orders only execute when another trader’s order matches your price. They don’t fill instantly unless the market reaches your specified limit.
