Simple Trading
The Simple Trading API allows users to create, manage, and close orders on supported exchanges based on predefined conditions. This is a low-level Order Management System (OMS) API that functions as a "unified exchange terminal" across all supported exchanges.
The Quentrade Order Management System (OMS) accepts commands to create and manage orders in a standardized format, handling all exchange-specific intricacies so users don't have to.
Quentrade Terminology
Trade
The core entity of the Order Management System (OMS), representing the overall trading intent and lifecycle.
Exchange Orders
A Trade may consist of one or more individual Exchange Orders placed and managed automatically on the connected exchange.
Key Features & Quality-of-Life Capabilities
The Simple Trading OMS provides high-reliability execution, automated edge-case handling, and advanced order emulation.
Emulated Advanced Order Types
Support for all Quentrade order types — such as Absolute Trailing, Relative Trailing, Conditional Trailing, Conditional Market, Conditional Limit, and others — even if the exchange itself doesn't support them. Their behavior is emulated by Quentrade.
Automatic Order Recreation
Automatic recreation of orders if they are unexpectedly canceled by the exchange or a third party, maintaining continuous market presence.
Automatic Balance Adjustment
Automatic adjustment of order size if it slightly exceeds available funds — the system dynamically reduces the size to fit the account balance.
Lot Size & Precision Handling
Automatic handling of lot sizes, step sizes, and price precision, so developers and algorithms don't need to worry about exchange-specific formatting or rounding errors.
Simple Trading Endpoints
Unified REST API methods to create, inspect, query history, and cancel trades across all connected exchanges.
