Binance minimum order value, step size and tick size: why a valid amount still fails
An order can meet the minimum order value and still fail on quantity step size or price tick size. Work through decimal examples and match each error name to the input it refers to.

Rules & product observations
Read the observations →There is more to orders than market and limit
Official Spot documentation describes conditional and linked orders. Our guides currently cover market and limit orders and the difference between a trigger and a fill. 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.
