EMX API v1.1.0

The EMX API suite includes both REST and WebSocket endpoints that allow unauthenticated, public access to EMX market data (quotes, auction results, order books, and contract metadata) as well as private, authenticated access to trader orders, positions, balances, and notifications.

General

Matching Engine

EMX's matching engine is based on the concept of frequent batch auctions. See the EMX whitepaper for more details. Order inserts, cancels, and modifies are timestamped by the gateway and will be effected in the next auction following that timestamp.

Gateway Timestamps

Each request sent from a REST or WebSocket client to the EMX API Gateway will receive a timestamp. This timestamp will be returned to the client through the REST response body or WebSocket feed received message. It is important to note the timestamp at which the EMX API Gateway received your order operation requests, as that is the timestamp that will be honored by the discrete-time batch auctions. An example of a situation where the timestamp is crucial in understanding the logical operations of the matching engine is described below.

Self-Trade Prevention

Two orders from the same trader never fill one another. When a user has orders on both sides of an auction, any overlapping orders (i.e. bids above the user's lowest ask and asks below the user's highest bid) will be handled by the self-trade prevention strategy specified for the newest order. When placing an order, you may specify the one of the following self-trade prevention strategies:

When orders are excluded from an auction they will be rejected and not eligible to participate in future auctions unless all three of the following conditions are met: 1) the excluded order was a limit order, 2) the order it was across from was a market order, and 3) the auction crosses at a price that would not have filled the limit order. In that case the limit order is retained in the order book and is eligible to participate in future auctions.

Price Determination

If there is a range of prices that would yield the same level of transacted volume in an auction, the execution price will be the price in that range closest to the last trade price (or the last trade price itself, if it is in the range). If there is no last trade price, the midpoint price of the crossing orders is chosen.

Examples

Indicative Auctions

We run indicative auctions for the 10 minutes preceding the end of a platform outage or contract market closure. During this time, traders will be able to modify orders, but there will be no crosses and thus no fills. We will still compute auction results and return them over the auctions WebSocket channel but they will be indicative-only and not recorded. During a contract's indicative period, the order book will be distributed over the level2 and it may at times be crossed.

Specifying Orders

Lifecycle

The response from POST /v1/orders will include the EMX order_id (a uuid) that can be used to reference the order in future calls as well as the timestamp the order was received by the EMX API gateway.

received orders have been received by the gateway and are being checked for acceptance by the clearing house.

accepted orders have been accepted by the EMX clearing house and will be included in the next auction. Orders in this state may have been partially filled. There is no separate filled state, besides done below.

rejected orders have been rejected by the EMX clearing house due to a lack of funds to cover initial margin or other limits or restrictions in-place (like self-trading prevention). Orders in this state may have fills as an order may transition from accepted to rejected in some scenarios. Orders that were received and immediately rejected are not recorded and are not retrievable by EMX API queries.

canceled orders have been canceled by the user or by the margin system / clearing house (possibly after some quantity has been filled).

done orders have been either completely filled or are no longer active (but were not canceled).

Order Types

Each order has a type which specifies how it is executed by the matching engine. The order type is always a required field, and must be one of the following values.

Orders of all types may be partially filled. If an order is not completely filled in one auction, it will live on until it is either completely filled or canceled by the user (or, in cases of margin calls, by the clearing house).

Market

A market order is an order to execute immediately at the current market price. The order must include a side (buy or sell) and a size indicating the number of contracts to trade.

The order is filled at the crossing price of the next auction(s) with available liquidity, and will rest on the book over multiple auctions until filled or canceled.

Note that unlike limit orders, market orders provide no price guarantees. Further, in cases where market moves substantially or if the market order trades across several levels of the book, it's important to understand that all trades in that auction pay the same crossing price.

Limit

A limit order is an order to execute at or better than a specified price. The order must include a side (buy or sell) and a size indicating the number of contracts to trade.

The order is filled at the crossing price of the next auction(s) with available liquidity AND in which the crossing price is equal to or better than the order price. This guarantees the maximum price the order may trade at, but may result in the order taking a long time to fill, filling only partially, or even failing to fill at all.

Stop Market / Limit

A stop_market or stop_limit order is an instruction to add a market or limit order to the book once the trigger price has crossed the stop_price. The order must include a side and size (and in the case of a stop limit, a price) which describe the order to be added once the stop is triggered. In addition, the order must include a stop_price which indicates the mark price at which to trigger the stop. The stop may be configured to trigger on last trade or underlying index price rather than mark price using the stop_trigger property.

Stop orders rest in the matching engine until an auction crosses at a price 'outside' the stop_price:

Immediately following the auction which crosses the stop_price, the stop order is converted to a regular market or limit order using the included side and size. This order becomes available for execution in the first auction following the one which triggered the stop. The order will incur the standard fees, as any order inserted at the time of the trigger would.

While it is untriggered a stop order is invisible, and is not included in the book. Once it is triggered it becomes visible (as it is now a normal order).

Note that the time priority of the order is the time at which it was triggered, rather than the time at which the stop was last updated.

Trailing Stop

A stop_market or stop_limit order may be specified with either a fixed or percentage trailing value (using the peg_price_type and peg_offset_value order properties). For example, on a stop_market sell order a $-100 offset value will have the effect of setting the stop price $100 below the trigger price (specified as with a regular stop order using the stop_trigger property.) Note the stop price will only update as the market moves away from the stop price, not towards it. This has the effect of moving the stop price of a stop sell order up along with the market, but keeps it constant as the price falls towards the stop (and vice-versa for a stop buy order.) Just as with a normal stop, the order must include a side and size (and in the case of a stop limit, a price) which describe the order to be added once the stop is triggered. A trailing stop order must not include a stop_price as it will be set relative to the peg.

Take Profit Market / Limit

A take_market or take_limit order is the same as a stop market or limit order, but with the trigger directions reversed. That is:

Conditions

We do not support any special order conditions at this time. All orders are considered good-til-canceled (GTC) orders.

Price

Prices must always be specified in the quote currency of the contract and in increments of the contract's minimum price increment (tick size). For BTC-series contracts, the quote currency is USD and the tick size is 0.01 or 1 penny. Note that prices should always be specified as a string.

Quantity

Order sizes in the EMX API are always unsigned; the side specifies whether the order quantity should represent a buy or a sell. The maximum precision of all quantities is 1E-4 (meaning the smallest quantity increment is 0.0001). Note that quantities should always be specified as a string with four decimal places.

Holds

We will place a hold on your collateral in the amount of the initial margin required to fund all active orders (in isolation, not cross-margined) plus applicable transaction fees. The hold for an order will be lifted as soon as that order is filled, partially filled, or canceled.

Price Bands

To protect against order entry errors, limit orders will be rejected if their limit price is 5% beyond the reference price and they would cross in the previous auction (execute immediately). The reference price is defined as the crossing price of the last auction, if there was a cross, and the impact mid ("fair price") if not. See Help & Support for definition of the fair price.

Similarly, market orders have an implicit limit price of 5% beyond the reference price. This is to prevent a trader inserting market orders from unintended slippage.

Contract Codes

Contracts on EMX are designated by ids like BTCZ18. This id describes a contract with future series code BTC (the EMX BTC-USD future series) and expiration in December 2018 (Z18). EMX uses industry-standard month codes to name its contracts.

Requests

EMX REST API requests and responses are all application/json content type and follow standard HTTP response status codes.

Rate Limits

There are a few different request limits to be aware of:

All request limiters refill continuously. If you breach a request limit, you will receive an HTTP response with code 429: Too Many Requests. If you're sending a WebSocket message, you'll receive a message with "type": "error" and a message field letting you know details of the breach.

Note that you may call public, unauthenticated REST endpoints using authenticated requests in order to use the higher rate limit.

The following informational HTTP headers are included with all REST responses:

Header Description
x-ratelimit-limit Current request limit
x-ratelimit-remaining Requests remaining in this limit
x-ratelimit-reset UNIX timestamp (seconds) at which you'll have enough requests available to retry this request
x-ratelimit-retry-after Number of seconds to wait before retrying (only sent if rejected)

The EMX REST API Gateway also has DDOS protections in-place. If your requests are being limited by this system, you will receive an HTTP response with code 403: Forbidden.

Bulk Order Operations

To encourage the use of bulk order create, modify, and delete operations (over both REST and WebSocket), these operations contribute to rate limit usage at a reduced rate. A bulk order operation will use tokens at a rate of ceil(# of orders / 2). For example, placing 3 orders in one bulk message is treated as 2 messages. Placing 5 orders is treated as 3.

Errors

Errors and bad requests will result in HTTP 4xx status codes. The response body will also contain message and message_code parameters with more details.

WebSocket messages may contain errors, as well, with message and message_code (and usually message_details) included in the data property in the message.

There is a list of possible message_code values here.

Success

Successful responses will return HTTP status code 200 and may also contain a body.

Pagination

Requests for /orders, /fills, /accounts/{trader_id}/ledger, and /contracts/{contract_code}/auctions return arrays and are paginated using cursor pagination (with ISO timestamps used as cursors). You may supply pagination parameters start_time, end_time, descending, and count as query parameters to these endpoints. Chronologically sorted pages of 200 items are retuned, by default. You may specify a larger page size (up to 500 items) and reverse chronological order (newest first) by specifying the count and descending query parameters respectively.

If descending = false (the default), then your results will start at start_time (or if unspecified, the beginning of time) and stop at end_time (or until the maximum page size is reached). Alternatively, if descending = true, then your results will start at end_time (or if unspecified, the current time) and stop at start_time (or until the maximum page size is reached).

Types

Numbers

Decimal numbers will always be returned from EMX REST and WebSocket APIs as strings. This is required in order to preserve precision across various client-side languages and platforms. When consuming a string-valued decimal number from an API response, make sure to use a library that preserves floating-point precision (like BigNumber, in Java).

We recommend that decimal numbers in requests be submitted as strings, as well - though, our API will accept numbers as long as they are out beyond the precision requirements of the value being submitted.

Timestamps

All timestamps returned by EMX APIs will be in ISO 8601 format including milliseconds (2018-09-02T23:28:45.043Z).

Client Libraries

Our official Node.js REST and WebSocket client is available here. You can install it simply by running npm install emx.

A Python client is available here.

More client libraries and examples are coming soon.

Notes

"Fills-After-Cancels"

Because EMX blends "real-time" order operations with discrete-time auction periods, there are some situations that can occur that will be unfamiliar to traders used to traditional continuous matching engines. One example of this is the possible receipt of a filled message after a canceled message. Here's a situation where this could occur:

  1. A trader places an order timestamped at 00:00:01.500.

  2. The trader cancels that order and their request is timestamped at 00:00:02.001.

  3. The 00:00:02 auction is computed at 00:00:02.050. This auction includes this order, as it was canceled after the logical end time of the auction.

  4. The trader receives a canceled message with timestamp 00:00:02.001.

  5. The trader receives a filled message with timestamp 00:00:02.000 (the logical end time of the 00:00:02 auction in which the order was filled).

This example demonstrates a possibly unintuitive interaction between real-time order operations and the batch auction series computed over discrete time periods. API consumers should always use the timestamp of messages - and not the time or order messages were received - to deduce the logical sequence of EMX market behavior.

Trader API

The EMX Trader REST API allows private (authenticated) access to your:

REST API ENDPOINT URL
https://api.emx.com/v1

Authentication

There are two methods of authentication supported by the EMX Trader API REST endpoints:

Bearer Token Authentication

This form of authentication is used by the official web and mobile EMX clients. It is not intended for third-party users of the API. To use this method, you'll need to pass the Authorization and X-User-Id-Token headers in every REST request.

API Key Authentication

This is the recommended form of authentication for EMX API users. To use this form of authentication, you must supply three parameters with every REST request:

The API key as a string.

The base64 encoded signature (see Signing a Message below).

The timestamp of your request. This must be the number of integer seconds since the Unix Epoch in UTC.

All request bodies should have content type application/json and be valid JSON.

Signing a Message

var crypto = require('crypto');

var secret = '<MY SECRET>';

var timestamp = Math.round(Date.now() / 1000);
var path = '/v1/orders';

var body = JSON.stringify({
  contract_code: 'BTCU18',
  size: '1.0125',
  price: '6500.00',
  type: 'limit',
});

var method = 'POST';

// create the prehash string by concatenating required parts
var what = timestamp + method + path + body;

// decode the base64 secret
var key = Buffer.from(secret, 'base64');

// create a sha256 hmac with the secret
var hmac = crypto.createHmac('sha256', key);

// sign the require message with the hmac
// and finally base64 encode the result
return hmac.update(what).digest('base64');

The EMX-ACCESS-SIG header is generated by creating a sha256 HMAC using the base64-decoded secret key on the prehash string timestamp + HTTP method + path + body (where '+' represents string concatenation) and base64-encode the output. The timestamp value is the same as the EMX-ACCESS-TIMESTAMP header.

The body is the request body string or omitted if there is no request body (typically for GET requests).

Note:

You can find examples of client authentication code in our client libraries.

Create New Order

POST /orders

You may specify a custom client id for your order by supplying the optional body parameter client_id. This can be any string up to 256 characters. This id is included in all orders messages sent to the client on the orders WebSocket channel (or in REST responses). This can be useful to allow API users to match EMX order ids with a custom id created on their end.

Note that you may also submit orders through the EMX WebSocket Feed. This may be a better option due to the ability to keep a persistent connection open and the rate limits enforced on EMX REST endpoints.

For more information, see Specifying Orders.

Modify Existing Order

PATCH /orders/{order_id}

You may modify the type, size, price, stop_price, stop_trigger, and reduce_only of an order. Your modified order will not retain the time-priority of the original order. Your order will retain the same order id.

If you're listening on the orders WebSocket channel for updates, you'll receive a modify-received message continaing the timestamp the EMX API Gateway received the modify request and a subsequent accepted message once your order is ready to be included in the next auction (or modify-rejected if your modification could not be applied). If your modification is rejected, the unmodified order will remain active.

If you update an order's size to a size equal to or less than the current sizeFilled, your request will be processed as a cancel.

Note that you may also modify orders through the EMX WebSocket Feed. This may be a better option due to the ability to keep a persistent connection open and the rate limits enforced on EMX REST endpoints.

Dead Man's Switch (Auto-Cancel)

POST /orders/cancel-all-after

A "dead man's switch" (or auto-cancel functionality) can help prevent unexpected fills during a network disconnect or other system issue. This optional feature lets you set a timeout by calling this endpoint (or by sending an equivalent WebSocket message) that starts a timer for a specifed number of milliseconds. If you do not call this endpoint again before the timer runs out, all your orders will be canceled.

Note that all the orders for the callers account will be canceled, not only those that were created recently or created from the same IP.

Set the timeout to 0 to cancel the timer and keep your orders alive.

Body parameter

{
  "timeout": 0
}

Parameters

Parameter In Type Required Description
body body object true none
» timeout body integer true Requested timeout in milliseconds (or 0 to cancel timer)

WebSocket Feed

The EMX WebSocket feed provides real-time order, fill, balance, and market data updates. All messages sent and received over the socket will be in JSON format and follow a standard schema. Messages will always contain a type property and the channel or channels they are applicable to. They may also contain the contract_code or contract_codes that they pertain to. Trading is also possible through the WebSocket API.

WebSocket connections and upstream messages (subscriptions and trading operations) are rate limited as described in the Rate Limits section above.

WEBSOCKETS FEED URL
wss://api.emx.com

Subscriptions

You can subscribe and unsubscribe from channels (with options to listen for changes only to specific contracts - or to listen for updates to all contracts) by sending subscription messages to the socket. After processing any subscription or un-subscription requests, we'll send a message with type subscriptions giving you a list of your current subscriptions.

Subscription messages consume from your request limit as described in the Rate Limits section above.

Subscribe

Subscribe (specific contract)

{
    "type": "subscribe",
    "contract_codes": ["BTCZ18"],
    "channels": ["auctions"]
}

Subscribe (all contracts; authenticated)

{
    "type": "subscribe",
    "contract_codes": [],
    "channels": ["orders"],
    "key": "...",
    "sig": "...",
    "timestamp": "..."
}

Unsubscribe (all contracts)

{
    "type": "unsubscribe",
    "contract_codes": [],
    "channels": ["orders"]
}

To subscribe to a channel, send a message with type subscribe, per the example here. If the channel is private, you'll need to send authentication fields per the Authentication section below.

To subscribe to all contracts, leave the contract_codes list empty.

Unsubscribe

To unsubscribe from a channel, send the same message with type unsubscribe. To unsubscribe from all contracts, send an empty list. To unsubscribe from all channels, send an empty list.

Authentication (Private)

Private (authenticated) channels require a signed subscribe message. To subscribe to a private channel, send the subscribe message as usual, but also pass in key, sig, and timestamp fields as if you were signing a request (with empty body) to GET /v1/user/verify. See the EMX client libraries for an example.

You may also authenticate by signing the initial HTTP upgrade request in the same manner you would sign other REST calls as described here. If you do this, you do not need to send any auth fields in your messages.

Note that any failed authentication attempts will close the socket.

Socket Health

Example message

{
  channel: "heartbeat",
  time: "2018-09-19T19:57:41.105Z"
}

Per the WebSocket standard, the EMX WebSocket API Gateway use the ping/pong opcodes to detected a dropped connection. We will send a ping opcode periodically to each open WebSocket connection to check to see if it is still alive. If we do not receive a pong opcode before the next check period, we will close the connection.

In addition to the transport-level check, we will send a message on the heartbeat channel every 3 seconds. A client can use a drop in heartbeat messages to signify a lost connection.

Channels

The following list of channels are available for subscription:

ticker Channel

The ticker channel notifies you of every new auction price and quote update (for EMX contracts using our frequent batch auction matching engine) and for every trade (for off-EMX contracts using continuous real-time matching engines).

Note that ticker messages will not be sent out during a contract's indicative period. Only auctions and level2 channels will receive updates during the indicative period.

After subscribing to the channel, you'll receive a message of type snapshot that contains last_trade data including price, volume (in # of contracts), and time as well as quote data including best bid, best ask, and sizes. You'll also receive the latest fair price, index price, and mark prices. Upon subsequent auctions or trades occurring in the market, you'll receive messages of type update to notify you of the new last trade, quote, and price data. The snapshot and update messages will always contain the same properties.

    timestamp: "2019-06-18T22:45:00.000Z"
   }
}

The funding channel notifies you of funding rates for the last funding period (paid at last_funding_time), the current funding period (to be paid at next_funding_time), and the next funding period (to be paid at indicative_funding_time).

After subscribing to the channel, you'll receive a message of type snapshot that contains the latest funding rate data for each contract. Upon subsequent updates (generally minutely), you'll receive messages of type update. The snapshot and update messages will always contain the same properties.

level2 Channel

Example messages

{
  channel: "level2",
  type: "snapshot",
  data: {
    contract_code: "BTCZ18",
    bids: [[ "7500.00", "100.2341" ], [ "7500.01", "56.2151" ], ...],
    asks: [[ "7500.02", "12.4372" ], [ "7500.03", "32.1839" ], ...]
  }
}

{
  channel: "level2",
  type: "update",
  data: {
    contract_code: "BTCZ18",
    after_auction_code: "BTCU18-2018-09-03T19:57:41.000Z",
    changes: [
      [ "bid", "7500.00", "75.2341" ],
      [ "ask", "7500.02", "13.9372" ],
      [ "ask", "7500.03", "0" ]
    ]
  }
}

The level2 channel lets you keep up-to-date with the latest order book for a contract.

After subscribing, you will receive a message of type snapshot that contains the entire order book including contract_code, levels of bids (with [price, size] tuples), and levels of asks.

Subsequent updates will be of type update and contain a changes property that is an array of updated levels. Each element of the array is a [side, price, size] tuple where side is either bid or ask. Note that size is not a delta, it's the new size at that price level. A size of "0" indicates that the level is now empty and should be removed.

Note that during a contract's indicative period, the book distributed over the level2 channel may be crossed.

    logical_time: "2019-01-16T05:57:47.000Z"
  }
}

The auctions channel includes all auction results including price, volume, and imbalance. The message also includes the logical_time of the auction, which is the cutoff time for order timestamps to be included in the batch - and the call_time of the auction, which is the wall clock time that the auction was computed and market data was disseminated.

Note that type may be complete for regular auctions or indicative in the case of auctions during a contract's indicative period.

The orders channel includes all state changes for a user's order set.

After subscribing to the channel, you'll receive a message of type snapshot that contains the latest status of each of the user's active orders. Upon subsequent order state changes (fills, cancellations, other status updates), you'll receive messages of type update to notify you of the new state.

Upon posting a new order (through REST API endpoint POST /orders), you will receive a message with action: received. This message will let you know the timestamp the EMX API gateway received your order (and will include a clientId, if one was supplied during order creation).

The timestamp supplied in messages across the orders channel will be the timestamp of the state change being reported. In the snapshot messages, the created_at time is the time the order first hit the EMX API gateway. That same timestamp would have been reported on the original action: "received" message.

Possible values for action:

  }
}

The positions channel includes notifications for updated contract position quantities (due to order fills or forced liquidations) and realized profit and loss (day_closed_pl). This channel is useful for calculating position-level (and rolling-up to aggregate) profit and loss.

You can calculate Open P&L (as reported in EMX Trading Applications) by calculating (average_entry_price - last_price) * quantity. You can listen for last_price updates on the ticker channel.

You can calculate Total P&L by adding the Open P&L value (unrealized P&L) to day_closed_pl.

You can calculate Day P&L by adding day_relative_closed_pl to the unrealized P&L from today, calculated by (day_relative_average_entry_price - last_price) * quantity.

The account channel reports active user-attributes and information about rewards that those attributes (i.e. volume tiers, EMX holding tiers, deposit match offers) have earned the user. This channel is specific to a user, not a specific trading account or subaccount.

This channel also reports 30-day trailing volume details (used to determine the user's volume tier). EMX holding details (used to determine the user's EMX holding tier) are available in the balances channel.

The snapshot and update messages have the same schema.

Trading

To perform trading operations over the EMX WebSocket feed, first subscribe to a special upstream channel named trading. You must include authentication fields in your subscription request, as described here. Do not pass any specific contract_codes in your subscription message; simply pass contract_codes: []. Once subscribed, you may perform the following order management tasks by sending messages with type: 'request' over your EMX WebSocket Feed connection. Note that you will not receive any downstream messages on the trading channel; you must be subscribed to the orders channel to receive order insert/modify/cancel notifications.

Messages sent to the trading channel are rate limited as described in the Rate Limits section above.

{
  channel: "trading",
  type: "request",

action: 'cancel-all-after'

See REST API docs for details.

Publishing Indexes

Whitelisted partners can publish Index data to EMX over the WebSocket interface.

Before sending Index data you must have an authenticated socket connection. See the section on WebSocket Authentication for details. We recommend authenticating the initial HTTP upgrade request; alternatively you can subscribe to the upstream channel trading (with the setting contract_codes: []) in order to authenticate without creating any additional message volume.

Messages sent to the indexes channel are rate limited as described in the Rate Limits section above.

Send Index Data

Example message

{
  channel: "indexes",
  type: "request",
  action: "publish-sample",
  data: {
    index_code: "BTCUSD",
    generated_at: "2012-01-01T00:00:00.000Z",
    value: "10.0000",
    details: {
      sources: [{
        name: 'bitfinex',
        value: "11",
        age: 42,
        source_timestamp: "2012-01-01T00:00:00.000Z"
      }, {
        ...
      }],
    }
  }
}

action: 'publish-sample'

Publish an Index data sample. An Index Provider (the system which aggregates data and publishes the result) uses this message to send new data samples to EMX.

Fields:

An Index Provider should publish a new sample anytime new data is available from an upstream source. Most commonly the upstream value will have changed, and so the index value will also change. Less commonly, the upstream value may not change; however, the Index Provider should still publish the sample in order to communicate the updated source timestamps to EMX.

Note that the field generated_at as well as details -> sources -> * -> age are both relative to the clock on the Index Provider, while the field details -> sources -> * -> source_timestamp is the timestamp reported by the upstream source and is not correlated with the Index Provider clock.

FIX API

FIX is a financial-industry standard protocol used for order entry, status retrieval, and other related bidirectional messages. Typically, a user of the FIX API will have existing software that supports FIX. Users who are not familiar with FIX may use the EMX REST and WebSocket APIs.

Coming Soon

The EMX FIX API is not-yet-implemented.

Appendix

Message Codes

Errors, bad requests, and rejected orders generally result in responses (either REST or WebSocket) containing a message_code string specifying the error that occurred. Here's a list of possible values for message_code:

message_code Description
ORDER_REJECT_BAD_STATUS The order has a status that makes it not modifyable.
ORDER_REJECT_INVALID_POST_ONLY
ORDER_REJECT_INVALID_CLOSE_ONLY
ORDER_REJECT_LIMIT_PRICE_PROTECTION_VIOLATION The limit price violates the price protection range for this symbol.
ORDER_REJECT_MAINTENANCE The system is under active maintenance.
ORDER_REJECT_MAX_ORDERS You have violated the 25 orders per symbol limit.
ORDER_REJECT_NOT_FOUND The order to modify was not found.
ORDER_REJECT_PARSE_ERROR The request failed to parse. Check data types. (strings vs. numbers)
ORDER_REJECT_PRICE_INVALID Prices must be positive and aligned with the tick size defined for the symbol.
ORDER_REJECT_QUANTITY_ZERO Quantity may not be zero.
ORDER_REJECT_TOKEN_LIMIT Your current token balance is not enough to back this order.
ORDER_REJECT_TOKEN_LIMIT_OTHER
ORDER_REJECT_SELF_TRADE This order would have been involved in a self-trade.
