Error: Max orders / too many requests / rate limit

Created by Levi Dane, Modified on Tue, 30 Dec, 2025 at 5:31 AM by Levi Dane

Quick answer

This means the receiver broker/platform is rejecting requests because you are sending too many actions.

  1. Reduce the number of rapid modifications (especially SL/TP spam)
  2. Reduce the number of connections trading at once
  3. Retest

Symptoms

  • Logs show:
  • "Too many requests"
  • "Rate limit"
  • "Max orders"
  • "Throttle"

Most common causes

  • Very fast signal sources (many events in a short time)
  • Repeated SL/TP modifications (trailing/BE settings too aggressive)
  • Broker/platform rate limiting API traffic

Fix steps

  1. Reduce “chatty” features: - Loosen trailing stop settings - Reduce breakeven frequency
  2. Reduce the number of simultaneous connections
  3. If you have many receivers, stagger testing and scale gradually

Verify it worked

  1. Place a small test trade
  2. Confirm in Logs no rate-limit errors occur

If it still fails (Escalate)

Include:

  • Broker/platform
  • Approx number of orders/events per minute
  • The exact error text
