Deribit Broker Profile

From MultiCharts

OCO group is emulated by MultiCharts. Emulated OCO group means that all OCO orders are sent to the broker, price is monitored by MultiCharts and once one of the orders is filled, other orders from this OCO group are cancelled by MultiCharts. When one of the OCO orders is filled, MultiCharts sends a command to cancel the second OCO order to the broker. Note that the second order may also be filled if price reaches its level before the cancellation is processed by the broker (see OCO Orders Risk).

Deribit Broker Profile

All types of orders are supported:

  • Market orders
  • Limit orders
  • Stop orders
  • Stop-Limit orders


Deribit provides information on the list of accounts, balance, and open positions. Equity is calculated by MultiCharts. Open position Profit/Loss and Unrealized Profit/Loss is calculated in MultiCharts as it is not provided by BitMEX.
