Binance Spot Launches “Smart Order Routing (SOR)” Experimental Trading Feature for API Users

This is a general announcement. Products and services referred to here may not be available in your region.

Fellow Binancians,

Binance will introduce Smart Order Routing (SOR), an experimental trading feature for API users, to the BNB/FDUSD and BNB/TUSD spot trading pairs at 2023-09-14 07:00 (UTC)

Smart Order Routing (SOR) allows users to potentially get better prices and higher liquidity by filling an order with liquidity across other order books with the same base asset and interchangeable quote assets. Interchangeable quote assets are quote assets with fixed 1 to 1 exchange rate, such as USD stablecoins.

Please note: 

  • As this is an experimental trading feature, Binance may pause the feature according to market conditions at any time without prior or further notice. If the SOR feature is not enabled or when the SOR feature is disabled for a trading pair, the system will return: { "code": -1013, "msg": "The SOR for this symbol is not ready."}

  • This feature is only available on Limit IOC, Market Order - Amount and Limit GTC orders. 

  • If the order using SOR is not fully fulfilled based on the eligible order books' liquidity, Limit IOC or Market Orders will immediately expire, while the remaining quantity of Limit GTC orders will be placed on the order book of the submitted symbol.

  • Where any discrepancy arises between the translated version of this communication and the original English version, the English version of this communication shall prevail.

Example:

The SOR feature is further explained below using the Ask side of the order books of BNB/FDUSD and BNB/TUSD spot trading pairs at 2023-09-01 00:00 (UTC) as an example:

Order Books: 

BNB/FDUSD (Opening price at 2023-09-01 00:00 UTC)

BNB/TUSD (Opening price at 2023-09-01 00:00 UTC)

Price: 217.0

Quantity: 3

Price: 217.1

Quantity: 2

Price: 216.8

Quantity: 3

Price: 216.9

Quantity: 2

According to the above order books:

1. If user A placed a regular Limit IOC BUY order for BNB/TUSD spot trading pair, setting the price at 217.0 and the quantity at 1, the order would be matched with the best SELL price in the BNB/TUSD order book, which would be 216.9. User A would spend 216.9 TUSD and receive 1 BNB.

2. If user A placed a Limit GTC BUY order using SOR for BNB/TUSD spot trading pair, setting the price at 217.0 and the quantity at 1, the order would be matched with the best SELL price across all symbols in the SOR. According to the above table, the best price would be 216.8 in the BNB/FDUSD order book. User A would spend 216.8 TUSD (not FDUSD) and receive 1 BNB. Please note: SOR orders will be executed using the quote asset of the placed order.
