WHAT IT DOES

What amendOrder does on Bybit MCP Server

AI agents use amendOrder to create or update resources in Bybit MCP Server, usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Bybit MCP Server environment.

RISK

Why amendOrder is rated Medium

amendOrder modifies an existing open trading order on a cryptocurrency exchange. This is a Write operation (reversible modification), but carries high severity because incorrect modifications to price, quantity, or risk parameters (TP/SL) on live orders can result in significant financial loss, even though it doesn't directly move funds like a Financial category tool would.

From the tool's definition Modify an existing open order. You can update price, quantity, trigger price, take-profit, and stop-loss parameters.

amendOrder Rate-limited

amendOrder stays usable, but capped: an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
