Example for placing the order #11

Closed nbl2010 closed 3 years ago

nbl2010 commented 4 years ago

Do you have example of placing order or modify order using this lib? I am getting bad request error. Perhaps the format of the order is not correct. I would like to see if you have a working example.

Thanks.
