“Starting today, November 14, you can place buy or sell Stop-Limit orders on all order books using the Gemini ActiveTrader™ interface, as well as our REST and FIX order entry APIs.”
Stop-Limit orders are typically used by traders to help manage risk and are common in marketplaces for traditional asset classes. When the Last Trade Price crosses the Stop Price on either the order book or the Gemini Auction, a Limit order will be placed on the Side at the Limit Price associated with the order.
