Symbols and minimums
Quantity and price on incoming orders are strictly held to the minimums and increments shown in the live API reference table below.
[!NOTE] This page specifically covers Crypto Trading pairs, minimum order sizes, tick sizes, and price increments. For Event Contracts & Prediction Markets, tickers, taxonomy, and contract details are handled separately — see Prediction Market Tickers & Taxonomy.
Precision on the exchange
Quantity and price on incoming orders are strictly held to the minimums and increments on the table shown below.
However, once on the exchange, quantities and notional values may exhibit additional precision down to two decimal places past the "minimum order increment" listed below. For instance, it is possible that a btcusd trade could execute for a quantity of 0.0000000001 (1e-10) BTC. This is due to:
- Incoming market orders that may result in partial fills
- Fees
- Holds
This additional precision is marketable once on the exchange. Your account balances are maintained to full fractional precision in each currency.
