Remarks

Suppose you bought 1 BTC @ $14,000 and suppose that Bitcoin is trading at 15,500 USD/BTC at the moment. Now suppose you request to place a new sell stop-limit order on an exchange with the following parameters:

• thresholdPrice equal to 15,000 USD/BTC, and
• price is larger than 14,000 USD/BTC.

In this case, it is possible that you may get an error from the exchange because the new order parameters fits TakeProfitLimit rather than StopLimit parameters. The behavior is unfortunately exchange-specific.

You need to consult an exchange API documentation or contact their support to make sure you understand order processing correctly.

Exceptions

InvalidArgumentException

Thrown if:

• size is not strictly positive number, or
• price is not strictly positive number, or
• thresholdPrice is not strictly positive number.
