General Questions

Why was my order not executed?

Limit orders are executed when they reach their desired price, however, the executed price is different from the current price shown in the orderbook (the difference depends on the size of the order) because there is price impact in PancakeSwap liquidity pools.

Therefore your order may not be executed because:

• It wasn't possible to fill the whole order at the desired price and amount due to price impact.

• The token balance gets smaller than what you set for your limit order after the order is set. (BNB is not the case)

• BNB Network failure during the execution

Before submitting an order, please consult the UI denoting the real execution price.

Can I submit a limit order for tokens with fee on transfer?

Yes. The tokens with a fee on transfer can be used with limit orders.

How do I set slippage while using limit orders?

Slippage is not relevant in limit orders. You specify input amount (e.g. 1000 CAKE) and output amount (e.g. 20 BNB), Limit orders guarantee that you will receive no less than the specified output amount (20 BNB) for your input amount (1000 CAKE) if the price for the pair reaches the desired price.

Is there an expiration date for my limit orders?

Open orders will remain open indefinitely until they get executed or are canceled by users.

Why can’t I create limit orders below the market price?

To sell below market price, you need a Stop Limit Order, not a limit order. GDEX has implemented a solution and it includes this feature.
