To further enhance the trading experience for API users, Gate will introduce Take-Profit/Stop-Loss (TP/SL) parameter support in its Spot and Futures REST API order endpoints. Users will be able to include TP/SL parameters in the same request body as the primary order, eliminating the need for additional API calls.
1. Launch Schedule
Spot limit order endpoints with TP/SL parameter support: scheduled to go live on May 12, 2026 , covering the following endpoints:
- Single order placement: POST /api/v4/spot/orders (type=limit)
- Batch order placement: POST /api/v4/spot/batch_orders (type=limit)
- Order amendment: PATCH /api/v4/spot/orders/{order_id}
- Batch order amendment: POST /api/v4/spot/amend_batch_orders
Futures limit and market orders (POST/api/v4/futures/{settle}/orders ) with TP/SL parameter support: launch date to be confirmed and announced separately.
2. Feature Overview
This upgrade introduces optional TP and SL object parameters to the request body of the endpoints listed above, allowing users to attach take-profit and stop-loss logic at the time of order placement or amendment. Key capabilities include:
- TP and SL parameters can be set within the same request body as the primary order, with no additional API calls required.
- TP/SL execution supports both market price and limit price modes. For futures, partial position close is supported with a configurable contract quantity.
- All new parameters are optional fields and are fully backward compatible with existing API integrations.
3. Important Notes
- Spot market order restriction : TP/SL is not supported for spot market orders ( type=market ) at this time, consistent with the current behavior on the Web and App interfaces.
- Documentation and SDK updates : API documentation and related SDKs will be updated upon official launch. Please stay tuned for further announcements.
