Is the visible depth enough for this market order?
Use three price levels to estimate covered quantity and identify what cannot be priced from the visible book.
Execution issues
Only part filled. Where did the rest go?
Separate original quantity, cumulative execution and the remainder to avoid a duplicate buy.
Rule checks

Rules & product observations
Read the observations →There is more to orders than market and limit
Official Spot documentation describes conditional and linked orders. Our first issue covers market, limit and the distinction between triggering and filling. Check the types supported by your account before trying anything else.
Minimum value and quantity increments are different checks
Each pair has its own filters. When an order fails, confirm the pair, order type and current parameters instead of reusing numbers from another market.
An order can fill while cancellation is in flight
A new fill can occur between sending and processing a cancel request. Confirm the final status and executed quantity before submitting any remainder again.
