## 9. EXCHANGE OVERVIEW NOTES
### Bitstamp
- **Spot only** — no futures, no perpetuals, no margin
- Separate buy/sell endpoints (not a unified `side` param) — unusual design
- Trailing stop and stop-market DISCONTINUED May 2025
- `replace_order` = atomic cancel+replace (not true amend)
- Deposit/withdraw per-coin endpoints (not unified)
- Sub-accounts: institutional only
### MEXC
- Spot V3 (Binance-compatible) + Futures Contract V1 are **completely separate APIs** with separate auth
- Spot: no stop orders, no OCO, no amend; IOC/FOK via `type` field (not `timeInForce`)
- Futures: TP/SL inline on order; batch up to 50; hedge/one-way mode
- Position leverage requires positionId when position exists
- Sub-accounts: max 30, limited API support
### HTX (Huobi)
- Side baked into order type string (`buy-limit`, `sell-market`, etc.) — no separate `side` field on spot
- Separate algo-orders API for TP/SL on spot (`/v2/algo-orders`)
- Futures TP/SL are inline parameters on order placement
- Must query account-id list first — routing key for all orders
- Coin-M futures (`api.hbdm.com`) and USDT-M swaps (`linear-swap-api/v1`) are separate namespaces
- Dead man's switch: `cancel-all-after` endpoint
### Bitget
- V2 API — spot namespace `/api/v2/spot/` and futures namespace `/api/v2/mix/`
- Futures supports true amend (`modify-order`)
- Plan orders (trigger/TP/SL) are separate from regular orders
- Trailing stop via `planType: track_plan`
- `presetTakeProfitPrice` / `presetStopLossPrice` inline on regular orders
- Simultaneous TP+SL on position: `place-pos-tpsl-order`
- 6 account transfer types including isolated margin
### Gemini
- **Primarily spot** — perpetuals exist (PERP symbols) but derivatives endpoints poorly documented
- No dedicated market order type — use limit + `immediate-or-cancel`
- No batch orders, no amend, no cancel-by-symbol
- Unique auth: payload base64-encoded in header, not query string
- Sub-accounts: full support (create/list/transfer)
- Withdraw requires FundManager role (separate from Trader role)
- IP affirmation required for trading keys as of June 2025
### BingX
- Three market types: Spot, USDT-M Perpetual (swap/v2), Coin-M Inverse (cswap/v1)
- TWAP algo orders: confirmed (`swap/v1/twap/order`)
- Trailing stop: `TRAILING_STOP_MARKET` type
- Amend: swap v1 endpoint (`/openApi/swap/v1/trade/amend`)
- Sub-accounts: comprehensive API (create, list, transfer, API key management)
- TP+SL as embedded objects on single order call — bracket-like behavior
- All WebSocket messages are GZIP compressed
### Phemex
- Scaled integer prices — `priceEp` = price × scale_factor (varies by symbol)
- Iceberg on spot via `displayQty` parameter
- Bracket orders on futures: up to 5 related orders
- Trailing stop via `pegPriceType: TrailingStopPeg` + `pegOffsetValueEp`
- Leverage sign determines margin mode: `leverage=0` → cross; `>0` → isolated
- No batch order placement; bulk cancellation by comma-separated IDs
- Sub-account transfer endpoints exist; create/list not documented publicly
- Unified Trading Account (UTA) available with risk mode switching
### Crypto.com
- **Unified balance model** — no separate spot/futures wallet; single account namespace
- Stop/TP/SL orders migrated to `private/advanced/` API (as of Jan 2026)
- Full OCO, OTO, OTOCO (bracket) via Advanced Order Management API
- `private/amend-order` added June 2025 (reduces queue priority except size-down)
- Sub-account creation via UI only (not API)
- All numeric values in requests must be strings (not numbers)
- Response to order placement is async — only returns order_id, not fill info
- Max 200 open orders per pair; 1000 total per account
