Market statuses

A market can be assigned one of the following statuses:

  • Open — the market is operating properly and accepts orders via UI and API; this status cannot be assigned to a newly created market

  • Paused — the market stops accepting incoming orders via UI and API (previously placed limit orders still await execution); this status cannot be assigned to a newly created market

  • Halted — the market stops accepting incoming orders via UI and API, all open limit orders are cancelled

Note

For newly created markets, Status can only be set to Halted. To allow trading on the created market, locate it on the Settings > Markets page and set the market Status to Open.
