Accounts / SubAccounts
Why use subaccounts?
Subaccounts allow you to separate trading activities under one main exchange account. This helps keep strategies, risk, and balances clearly organized.
Typical ways traders use subaccounts
Different strategies
Example: one subaccount for manual trading, another for automated execution with Orderly.
Different markets
Example: BTC/USD in one subaccount, altcoin trading in another.
Risk separation
Allocate specific capital to a strategy so losses or experiments cannot affect the rest of your funds.
Testing vs. production
Use a dedicated subaccount to test new configurations before running them with larger capital.
How Orderly benefits
Using subaccounts lets you run multiple independent setups without interfering with each other. Each subaccount can have its own balances, open orders, and configuration.
