Deal limits

The «Deal limits» section lets you set a hard cap on the number of simultaneously active bot deals per exchange account. It’s a safety net: if you have several bots on one account, the limit keeps them from going over a reasonable total load.

Limits live at the account level, not at the individual bot level — that is, they count deals from all bots running on that account.

The table has one row per exchange account of the current liquidity, with columns:

  • Account — account name.
  • Total limit — max simultaneously open deals on this account combined (regardless of direction).
  • Long limit — separate cap for long deals.
  • Short limit — separate cap for short deals.
  • Action«Edit» button to change the values.
  • Limits combine with bot-level conditions: the stricter one wins. If a bot is configured to a max of 5 simultaneous deals and the account limit is 3, the bot won’t exceed 3.
  • Long and Short limits are subsets of the total. If total = 100, Long = 80, Short = 50 — the combined deals across both directions still can’t exceed 100.
  • When the limit is reached, the bot does not open a new deal until one of the existing ones closes.
  • Test accounts. Set a small limit so an experimental bot doesn’t run away and pile up unnecessary positions.
  • Isolated risk profile. On a conservative-strategy account, restrict tightly; on an aggressive one, leave a wide cap.
  • Protection against bugs in your own scripts — if webhooks or external signals might re-send commands.
