Can You Send Multiple Limit Orders at Once in TradersPost?

TradersPost does not currently support batch limit orders, requiring each order to be sent as a separate request. Traders should create multiple alerts or space out orders to avoid broker rate limits, with future updates expected to improve multi-order execution.

What Happens If You Manually Close a Trade Before Your Bot Sells?

If a trader manually closes a position before a bot-generated sell signal, TradersPost will either return an error (if sentiment tracking is enabled) or potentially enter a short position (if it’s not). Using “action=exit” ensures proper trade execution.
