📤Limit Sell Orders

FAQ

Why didn't my limit order trigger?

A limit order may not have triggered for multiple reasons:

  1. The limit order takes into consideration the price impact of your potential swap. Even if the market price moved close to the trigger, it may be that your order would move the price out of trigger range.

  2. Swaps for that token may have been executed before you in the block, thereby affecting the token price and causing your order to fail.

What is the maximum expiry time for a limit order?

There is no limit on the expiry time you can use.

Why isn't my token in the list of available tokens to sell?

Each token balance must be worth at least 0.01 ETH to appear in the list of sellable tokens. On the ETH network, selling tokens worth less than 0.01 ETH will rarely be worth the gas costs.

What types of limit sell order are available?
  • Take Profit: Enter a positive percentage for the Price Change (e.g. "50%").

  • Stop Loss: Enter a negative percentage for the Price Change (e.g. "-20%").

  • Trailing Stop Loss: Not available yet.
