How can DAIBNB be in BREAK status, if BNBDAI is in TRADING status? Can I send a market order to go from DAI to BNB or from BNB to DAI? What does it mean?
Thanks!

Hi. This means that the symbol DAIBNB is not available for trading but you can use BNBDAI. You can still place a market order to convert DAI to BNB. The difference is that when you send the request, DAI should be the quote asset and BNB should be the base asset. For example, if I want to convert 1 DAI to BNB:

  1. Place a DAIBNB market order: quantity = 1
  2. Place a BNBDAI market order: quoteOrderQty = 1
