Question

What happens if I run out of funds while an algo is running?

Answer

Your algo will continue to attempt to place orders and execute even if you run out of relevant margin.

Your algo will continue to attempt to place orders and execute even if you run out of relevant margin. Orders will continue to be sent to the exchange, with the exchange imposing their specific margin rules and trade-related feedback received from the exchange is displayed on toast notifications.

For failed or rejected orders, you will be able to see insufficient funds related feedback in your Logs, and in the Algo Detail.
