Attempting to place an order for a Leveraged token without having completed the Binance requirements.
Log in to Binance, navigate to a leveraged token market (e.g. BTCUP/USDT, ADADOWN/USDT) and you will be asked to complete a quiz and be authorised to trade Binance leveraged tokens.
This symbol is restricted for this account
This means that your account is not allowed to place orders for the coin. You will also be restricted from placing orders for the coin directly on the exchange.
Some reasons include: your country does not allow residents to trade privacy coins (e.g. DASH, ZEC, XMR. See: Why can't I trade privacy coins on Binance?)
Orders position side does not match user details (4061)
On Binance exchange, change the Hedge mode to one-way. Altrady does not support hedge mode yet.
FOK order could not be filled immediately (5021)
Futures-only. Fill or Kill orders.
Note: Binance will delete the order and it will not be kept in the order history.

Stop price would trigger immediately.
Occurs on Stop Loss orders where the Stop price is above (for a Sell) or below (for a Buy) the current price.
Occurs on Trailing Stop Orders when the Stop price is too close to the Trigger price. The price has reversed, the SL placed, and the price has already moved past it. The exchange will not allow a Stop Buy order at a price lower than the current Ask Price, or a Stop Sell order at a price above the current Bid price. To avoid this error, use a larger gap between the Trigger price and the Stop price. This especially applies if you are trying to catch a falling knife.
Quantity greater than max quantity
Futures: The order size is too large for the combination of pair and order type. Binance Futures has some restrictions for order sizes for market orders for some pairs.
Insufficient Funds
Not enough available base currency to place the Sell order.
Insufficient Balance
There is not enough quote currency to place the Buy order.
