✅ Long Order Example in Future

In below example we have tried to clarify the details of placing a Long Order via KuCoin API.

💡 The complete process requires 3 orders:
1. First order to open a position.
2. Second is the TP order.
3. Third one is SL order.

📌 Example

Symbol: XBTUSDTM
1. The opening price/entry Price is: 21000
side: BUY/LONG
Position quantity: 10

SL price: 20000
TP price: 22000

Then you need to place 2 orders:

2. For TP order，the important parameters set are as follows:
side: sell
stop: up
stopPriceType: TP, IP or MP (TP for trade price, MP for mark price, and IP for index price)
stopPrice: 21900 (Recommended between 21000 and 22000)
price: 22000

3. For SL order，the important parameters set are as follows:
side: sell
stop: down
stopPriceType: TP, IP or MP (TP for trade price, MP for mark price, and IP for index price)
stopPrice: 20100 (Recommended between 20000 and 21000)

👉 KuCoin Adds OCO Order Type 🛎

KuCoin has enabled OCO order types (One Cancels the Other) to the WEB trading interface. App clients will have the OCO order type enabled at a later date.

What is an OCO order?

A One-Cancels-the-Other (OCO) is a pair of orders combining a stop-limit order and a limit maker order on the same side, with the same quantity. When either one of the orders is executed (the stop price is triggered for stop limit order), the other one is automatically canceled. And when canceling either one of the orders, the entire OCO pair is canceled.

For further information on how to use or execute OCO orders, refer to our guide：
