when placing an order request?

Hi ycomp,

Order IDs are strings therefore there is no practical limit. Why do you need this information?

Best Regards,

well, comments are also strings and my understanding is that they are limited to 100 characters. So I was thinking there might be some limit here also.

I need to track orders I send in order to prevent sending duplicate orders and I need a way to identify these orders once the trading api does something with them (fills them or cancels)

my current identifier can be quite long, so that's why I was asking.

if you know a better way of preventing duplicate orders being sent, please let me know.

Hi ycomp,

There should be a limit but I don't think it will affect you. If you keep your identifiers in reasonable sizes e.g. less than 50 characters, you should be fine.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis
