When creating a signal or a trade in Cornix, you may encounter one of these error messages in your notifications:
Cornix supports a maximum price distance of x10 between your Entry, Take-Profit and Stop-Loss prices, or between the current price and the order prices.
These messages appear when the distance between prices exceeds Cornix’s maximum allowed ratio of up to 10×.
🧠 How To Calculate
Divide the larger price by the smaller price. If the result is greater than 10, the error is triggered, and the signal or trade will not go through.
1. Some prices are too far from each other
This error means that the difference between two order prices (Entry, TP, SL) is greater than x10.
Example:
SOL/USDT (Long)
Entry: 100
Take-Profit: 200
Stop Loss: 10
The following table illustrates the price difference multiples:
Compared Prices | Ratio | Result |
Entry vs TP | 200 / 100 = 2 | ✅ OK |
Entry vs SL | 100 / 10 = 10 | ✅ OK |
TP vs SL | 200 / 10 = 20 | ❌ Exceeds the limit |
➡️ Result: The TP and SL are 20× apart, which exceeds the allowed 10× ratio. That will trigger the "Prices are too far from each other" message.
2. Some prices are too far from current price
This error means one of your order prices is more than 10× away from the current market price.
Example:
XRP/USDT (Short)
Entry: 50
SL: 500
*Current price: 40
Compared Prices | Ratio | Result |
SL vs Current | 500 / 40 = 12.5 | ❌ Exceeds limit |
Entry vs Current | 50 / 40 = 1.25 | ✅ OK |
SL vs Entry | 500 / 50 = 10 | ✅ OK |
➡️ Result: The Stop-Loss is 12.5× above the current price, triggering the error.
💡 How to Resolve
Adjust Prices: Modify your Entry, Take Profit, or Stop Loss prices to ensure that no order is exceeding the x10 distance limit, from another order or from the current market price. .
Safe Margin: To account for possible market moves while you are posting the signal or processing the trade, consider using a maximum of 9.5× difference as the maximum distance between prices.
