Placing Exit Orders when Coins have already been Bought (or Sold)

A Smart Order cannot be used where coins have already been bought (or sold).


If you wish to place both Take Profit and Stop Loss orders, the options are:

  1. For Binance and Binance US, use the OCO order to place a TP and Stop Limit Order at the same time.


See our OCO documentation for details. Linked above.


  1. For other Spot exchanges a workaround is needed to combine a Take Profit and Stop Loss for coins you already own.



  1. For Futures:
  • tick Reduce-Only, choose the correct side (Buy or Sell), and choose any of the available order types in the top part of the Trading widget to create a TP order. Place the order
