WHAT IT DOES

What amend_spread_order does on Bybit

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

RISK

Why amend_spread_order is rated Medium

Amending a spread trading order modifies an existing financial order on Bybit exchange. While it modifies trading state (Write), it doesn't directly move money or commit new financial obligations — it changes parameters of an existing order. However, amending orders on a live exchange has high blast radius as it can significantly affect trading positions and financial outcomes.
