Feature request: Binance Hedge Mode

See original GitHub issue

First of all, thanks for this awesome trading API!

I wonder if you would be open to add Binance Hedge Mode support. This allows you to open a long and a short at the same time, giving you the option to hedge. The createOrder needs to have a parameter for this option: positionSide which can be ‘LONG’ ‘SHORT’ and ‘BOTH’ for both sides (default). https://binance-docs.github.io/apidocs/testnet/en/#new-order-trade

I tried this out by simply adding a 7th optional parameter to createOrder and this seems to work fine. Of course I understand this will require more work to officially implement.

My test implementation: https://github.com/arenddeboer/ccxt/blob/d0184dcde3a3506ae49993d9038aa7f40fce3fe0/js/binance.js#L1136

Regards, Arend

@Gennttii I think it depends on your positionSide param. Let me know if you have issues with it (don’t forget your code / verbose output).
