Spot order rules
Check a pair's order amount and quantity rules
Enter a trading pair to read Binance's current public rules. Each number comes with its unit, so you can compare it with the order screen.
Start with the pair on your screen
For BTC/USDT, you trade BTC and prices are quoted in USDT. This example is not a recommendation to buy either asset.
Select Look up current rules to request the data from Binance's public API.

These are public rules, not a check of your account's eligibility. Your balance, identity and location, changing price conditions and account-specific restrictions can also affect an order. This page cannot place trades.

First time here? How to read the numbers
Three checks before using a result
- Match both assets to the pair on your trading screen. BTC/USDT and ETH/USDT have different rules.
- Select limit or market, then read the unit beside each number. Quantity is usually measured in the asset on the left; order value is measured in the asset on the right.
- Match the error message to an amount, quantity or price requirement. Work out what failed before changing the order. Do not increase your spending just to make an error disappear.
If you have already submitted an order, check whether it filled before placing another. The minimum order amount guide gives a more detailed checking sequence.
Why separate amount from quantity?
In a teaching example, a price of 20 USDT per coin and a quantity of 3 coins produce an order value of 60 USDT. A minimum number of coins and a minimum value in USDT are separate conditions. You may need to satisfy both. These figures are arithmetic examples, not a current price or limit for any pair.
Start with the units in a trading pair if the two assets are easy to mix up. For allowed increments, read why quantity steps are more than a decimal-place limit.
How is a market order's value checked?
You do not specify a market order's execution price. Binance may use a designated reference price to test an amount condition. Where that reference price is unavailable, the filter can use an average over its stated period or the last traded price. Multiplying the latest quote you saw by a quantity therefore does not guarantee that an order will pass.
Whether an amount filter applies to market orders depends on its own flags. The result distinguishes a condition that does not apply from information the API has not supplied. Market orders can also have separate quantity conditions. A zero or missing field does not mean that the entire order is unrestricted.
Where does the data come from?
When you select Look up current rules, your browser requests exchangeInfo from Binance's public market data API. The time beside the result is when this page retrieved the response, not when Binance changed a rule. Results do not refresh continuously. Run the lookup again to request another response; a failed request is never replaced with example numbers.

What if the lookup fails or trading is paused?
Check the spelling and order of the two assets first. A response saying that trading is paused or spot trading is unavailable is not permission to trade. For a network error or rate limit, wait as instructed before trying again. Repeated requests will not fix an access restriction. If the source is unavailable from your location, check the applicable rules and Binance's service availability; do not try to bypass the restriction.
Can this tell you what to buy?
No. It explains public order conditions. It does not compare investments, choose an amount or suggest when to trade, and it does not connect to your account. Crypto prices can change sharply and you could lose all the money you invest. Consider your circumstances and the rules where you live before deciding whether to trade. To read an order that has already traded, follow the guide to orders, fills and amounts received.
