cryptobot123-123 commented 3 years ago

do you maybe know how to use laverage on this?

cryptobot123-123 commented 3 years ago

APIError(code=-4061): Order's position side does not match user's setting.

I get this error if i try to buy like you said.

@cryptobot123-123 You need to assure that the trading settings reflect your intentions. In particular, you need to set the position mode to be in hedge mode to be able to use positionSide=LONG:

client.futures_change_position_mode(dualPositionMode='true')

If you want to trade futures on USDⓈ-M with leverage, you need to set the leverage for the corresponding symbol before creating an order:

client.futures_change_leverage(symbol='BTTUSDT', leverage=5)

where leverage would set your orders to have a 5× leverage.

I'm trying to call client.futures_change_position_mode(dualPositionMode='true') But it's giving me this error APIError(code=-1102): Mandatory parameter 'dualSidePosition' was not sent, was empty/null, or malformed. Formatting it like this isn't working either, what am I missing? client.futures_change_position_mode(data={'dualPositionMode':'true'}) APIError(code=-1022): Signature for this request is not valid.
