2024-APR-16​

Added support for FOK orders in Beta:

  • Released a fill or kill (FOK) order type. This feature is currently in open Beta and may be taken down to resolve issues during testing. FOK orders are either fully filled immediately or killed and cannot be postOnly. FOK orders are validated at most 20% away from mid market in either direction.

  • FOK orders can be simulated via the Preview Order endpoint. This is available to all users and is not under experiment.

Bracket is an order type available on Coinbase Advanced that allows users to buy/sell with a limit price while mitigating potential losses in volatile markets. A single SELL order can specify the limit price for momentum trading strategies, and a trigger price used to automatically trigger a sale to reduce risk exposure in case the market moves against you. More information on bracket orders can be found here: https://help.coinbase.com/en/coinbase/trading-and-funding/advanced-trade/order-types
