Self-Trade Prevention

Introduction

Self-Trade Prevention is an option in advanced settings.It is not selected by default. If you specify STP when placing orders, your order won't be matched by another one which is also yours. On the contrary, if STP is not specified in advanced, your order can be matched by another one of your own orders. It should be noted that only the taker's protection strategy is effective.

For spot STP, it should be noted that the STP function only occurs at the UID level, and spot already supports the master account level STP whitelist function.
