Title: Different Rules for Web Trading and API Trading on Mt Gox
Post by: EuSouBitcoin on September 08, 2011, 04:00:30 PM
If you place an order through the Mt Gox web site the order has to be for a minimum of 0.1 BTC. Yet when I look at the order book, I see many orders for less than 0.1 BTC. I heard that using the API you can place orders for 0.01 BTC. Can anyone confirm that? Also, is anyone aware of other differences between using the web site and the API?

I believe those are residual orders that were partially filled. But I never tried posting an order less than 0.1 with the API

Yes it is possible to make 0.01 BTC orders via the API. (have done it already)

It seems Mt Gox has changed the limit from 0.1 BTC to 0.01 BTC when entering orders on the website. I was just able to enter a 0.01 BTC order using the website.
