Submit orders via the API
In case you would like to submit orders programmatically instead of via a UI, this tutorial will show you how to do that. There are a couple of use cases why you might want to do that
- 1.Submitting “take profit” limit orders, where the current market price would not allow execution (not yet supported by the CoW Swap interface)
- 2.Actively listen for user orders and programmatically submitting matching orders them via a trading bot (active market making without order cost)
- 3.Other more automated trading strategies
The general API documentation can be found here: https://api.cow.fi/docs
We have also written a small trading bot script which can serve as inspiration.
