Hi,
I just realized that it is impossible to set BTC order size in the order of 0.01 BTC , 0.1 BTC via the Bookmap trading panel, am I missing something? I would be glad to see that in the upcoming versions, it would be possible to set decimal orders as well.
Best Regards,
Arian

Re: Decimal order size capability for BTC
Hello Arian,
I assume you have subscribed to BTCUSD_PERP, which is coin-margined perpetual future. This instrument is traded in contracts, where 1 contract is worth 100 USD. Partial contracts aren't available.
If you want to subscribe to USDT-margined perpetual future, where the instrument is traded in BTC, use the symbol name BTCUSDT.
Note: You can select the size granularity, based on your type of trading, in the Subscribe window.

Best,
Rok

Re: Decimal order size capability for BTC
Hello Rok, Im bringing this thread from the dead I hope thats fine:
Now that BTC is in the 100k range I find it relevant to use the 0.001 size at times but its not working even when following the steps in the example you provided. When selecting that granularity in the subscribe window it is still not possible to be selected or typed into the order trading panel for me. Or perhaps I am missing something?
Any help will be appreciated.
