Hi,
I tried to place an order like this
order = client.create_order(
symbol=‘XLMEUR’,
side=Client.SIDE_BUY,
type=Client.ORDER_TYPE_MARKET,
quantity=347.7355
)
I received the Lot_size error. I understand that there is an issue with the quantity but what is it ? How may I know the min and max quantity for this symbol ?
Many thanks for your help
A LOT_SIZE error implies that the quantity of the order does not conform with the LOT_SIZE filter. A symbol’s filter can be obtained from the Exchange Information endpoint.
XLMEUR’s LOT_SIZE filter is
{
"filterType": "LOT_SIZE",
"minQty": "1.00000000",
"maxQty": "9000000.00000000",
"stepSize": "1.00000000"
}
The issue here is that 347.7355
does not conform to the stepSize
of the filter. You must either place an order at 347
or 348
since
quantity % stepSize == 0

Thank you for your help.
Do you know where I can find a good documentation regarding all the filters (LOT_SIZE, MIN_NOTIONAL …) ?
