Rate limits
Vertex Websocket and REST API Rate limits.
Overview
Vertex uses a weight-based rate-limiting system across queries and executes. We limit based on
IP address,Wallet address, and a globalmax # of orders per subaccount per market.These limits equally apply to both
httprequests andWebsocketmessages.Limits are applied on a
1 minuteand10 secondsbasis.
Limits
IP addresses have a max weight limit of
2400per minute or400every 10 seconds across both queries and executes.Wallet addresses have a max weight limit of
600per minute or100every 10 seconds applied only to executes.Users can have up to
500open orders per subaccount per market.Orders have the following additional limits:
Place orders (with spot leverage): up to
600per minute or100every 10 seconds across all markets.Place orders (without spot leverage): up to
30per minute or5every 10 seconds across all markets. Note: orders without spot leverage are20xmore expensive to place due to additional health checks needed.Order cancellations: up to
600per minute or100every 10 seconds.
