Amend Order

POST 
/private/AmendOrder

The amend request enables clients to modify the order parameters in-place without the need to cancel the existing order and create a new one.

  • The order identifiers assigned by Kraken and/or client will stay the same.
  • Queue priority in the order book will be maintained where possible.
  • If an amend request will reduce the order quantity below the existing filled quantity, the remaining quantity will be cancelled.

For more detail, see amend transaction guide.
