MEXC market orders not supported

See original GitHub issue

import ccxt
mexc = ccxt.mexc({'apiKey': '...', 'secret': '...'})
exchange.createMarketBuyOrder('TRX/USDT', 1)

results in:

raise InvalidOrder(self.id + ' createOrder() does not support ' + type + ' order type, specify one of LIMIT, LIMIT_ORDER, POST_ONLY or IMMEDIATE_OR_CANCEL

However MEXC API does support market orders. Issue present in CCXT 1.78.43

“BadRequest mexc3 {“msg”:“api market order is disabled”,“code”:30019}”

That error message is coming from the exchange directly (not from CCXT).

Apart from the support on the CCXT side, those market orders also have to be enabled on the exchange side. In this case they are disabled for your symbol, or maybe for all symbols. I’d suggest asking MEXC about it.

Hello @bachapk,

We’ve decided to add the v3 in a separate class called Mexc3, if you want to use it just instantiate mexc3 instead of mexc
