python cctx Kucoin futures take profit

Question

I´m using ccxt on python to make a bot with Kucoin. Is there a way to make a Kucoin futures Order with take profit. take and order is easy

kucoin_futures.create_order('XBTUSDTM', "market", "buy", 1, None, {'leverage': 1})

but not a way to add take profit to order

thanks....

Take profit orders aren't unified for kucoinfutures yet, I'll add it to my list of things to do if it's possible, so check back in a few weeks, you can however set a a closing limit order like described in A. Dadkhah's answer — Sam, Mar 26 '22 at 09:34

For take profit, create a limit order with same size, opposite side and 'reduceOnly':true parameter.

def setTp(exchange, symbol: str, side: str, size: int, tp: float):
    params = dict(reduceOnly=True)
    side = 'sell' if side=='buy' else 'buy'
    try:
        res = exchange.createOrder(symbol, 'limit', side, size, price=tp, params=params)
        return res
    except Exception as e:
        print(e)
