Bot is issuing quote orders instead of base orders #8

I am getting this error for 2€ worth of solana : coinbasepro.exceptions.BadRequest: funds is too small. Minimum size is 5.00000000

When checking on coinbase's website it seems that 5 is the limit for quote orders, it should be placing a base order (minimum of 0.01).

The bot is unusable in this state as a minimum quote order for bitcoin is 10 for example !

The bot is designed to place Market orders, which do have a minimum currency amount, 10 USD is the minimum amount of BTC I can place a Market order for on the website. This is working correctly.

Thanks for the clarification. I thought that the minimum was in BTC not in EUR ! 10€ is fine, 10 BTC is not! Thanks again.
