SunCrypto has implemented an important update to its Spot Market trading framework by introducing per-order limits on selected low-liquidity tokens. This enhancement aims to safeguard users from unfavorable trade execution while ensuring stable, efficient, and reliable trading conditions across the platform.
What Has Changed?
SunCrypto has placed a maximum buy and sell cap per order on a specific set of tokens that are experiencing low market liquidity. Certain coins have seen a continuous decline in market capitalization, which has caused liquidity providers to offer limited liquidity for those assets. When market depth is shallow, placing a very large single order can result in slippage, partial fills, or degraded execution quality.
To address this, SunCrypto has introduced tiered per-order limits for the affected tokens. Depending on the token, users may encounter a per-order cap of:
₹10,000
₹25,000
₹50,000
₹1,00,000
It is important to note that these limits apply only to a selected group of low-liquidity tokens; the majority of tokens on the platform are unaffected.
Does This Restrict Total Trading Volume?
No. SunCrypto has been clear that this update places no restriction on the total amount a user can buy or sell. Traders can continue to transact any amount they wish; they simply need to split large trades into multiple smaller orders.
For example, if a token carries a ₹25,000 per-order limit and a user wishes to purchase ₹2,00,000 worth, they can place 8 separate orders of ₹25,000 each to complete the full transaction. The flexibility to trade at scale remains fully intact.
Why Is This Update Necessary?
The core reason behind this update is liquidity management. In cryptocurrency markets, liquidity refers to how easily an asset can be bought or sold without significantly affecting its price. When a token's market cap shrinks and trading volume thins out, the order books become shallow. Executing a large single order in a low-liquidity environment can lead to:
Price slippage — the final execution price being significantly worse than expected
Partial order fills — only a portion of the order is being completed
Market impact — a single large order inadvertently moving the token's price
By capping individual order sizes, SunCrypto aims to distribute trade execution more evenly across available liquidity, resulting in better prices and more reliable fills for users.
SunCrypto has stated that it continuously works with liquidity partners to improve market depth. As liquidity conditions improve for the affected tokens, per-order limits will be raised accordingly. The platform frames this update not as a restriction, but as a protective measure to ensure the best possible trading experience.
Traders on SunCrypto are advised to check the per-order limit displayed on any token's trading page before placing large orders, and to plan accordingly by splitting trades into multiple transactions where necessary.
