You may be required to verify that you control the External Account that you use to load Funds to your Atmosphere Account.

  1. Exchange Orders and Trades

This Section applies when you use the Services to trade one type of Digital Tokens for another type of Digital Tokens. A trade is a binding agreement between you and another user to exchange an agreed amount of one form of Digital Tokens, for an agreed amount of another form of Digital Tokens, which exchange is supported by the Services and which is in accordance with these Terms. Atmosphere does not purchase, sell, or exchange any Digital Tokens on its own behalf, does not provide services for the trading of Digital Tokens for Fiat Currency and vice versa, and does not provide services for the trading of one Fiat Currency for another Fiat Currency.

7.1. Order Placement, Authorization. An order is created when you enter an instruction to buy or sell a specified quantity of a type of Digital Token at a specified price. To place an order, you must have a sufficient amount of the relevant Funds in your Atmosphere Account to cover the total value of the order plus any applicable fees (as described in Section 9 below). You are not able to place an order which would result in self-execution, that is, where you would act as both the buyer and seller in respect of the same trade. If two orders of the same quantity would result in self-execution, both orders are cancelled. When you submit a new order via the Services, and it is matched with another order and it results in a trade under the Services, you will be deemed to have authorized Atmosphere to execute and settle the trade in accordance with such order on a spot basis and charge you any applicable fees (as described in Section 9 below).

7.2. Modes of Orders. We provide different modes of orders for your options as described below. For the purpose of description, the terms shall bear the below meanings:

Targeted Token: the type of Digital Token you intended to trade upon placement of an order or orders.

Latest Market Price: the latest unit price of the Targeted Token when the order placed by you shall be executed;

Specified Price: the unit price of the Targeted Token, which is preset by you and shall be the final executed unit price of the Targeted Token.

Preset Stop Price: the unit price of the Targeted Token, and you can preset its upper limit or its inferior limit; when the Latest Market Price reach this Preset Stop Price at its upper limit or its inferior limit, it shall trigger the execution of an order, of which ways may varies based on different modes of matching the order you chose.

(i)Market Order:

A Market Order is placed to buy or sell a Specified Quantity or a Specific Gross Amount of Targeted Token at the best available Latest Market Price.

(ii)Limit Order:

A Limit Order is placed to buy or sell a Specific Quantity of the Targeted Token at a Specific Price and shall be filled at such Specific Quantity and Specific Price.

(iii)Stop Market Order:

A Stop Market Order is placed to buy a Specific Quantity of Targeted Token or to buy a Specific Gross Amount of Targeted Token at the Latest Market Price when the upper limit of the Preset Stop Price is triggered. This means that when the Latest Market Price reach or beyond the upper limit of the Preset Stop Price, this order will be executed and filled at the Latest Market Price which may end up higher than the upper limit of the Preset Stop Price.

(iv)Stop Limit Order:

A Stop Limit Order is placed to sell a Specific Quantity of Targeted Token at the Specific Price when the inferior limit of Preset Stop Price is triggered. This means that when the Latest Market Price reach or below the inferior limit of the Preset Stop Price, this order will be executed and filled at the Specific Quantity as well as the Specific Price.

7.3 Advanced Order Function:

If you place a Limit Order or Stop Limit Order, the Advanced Order Function can then be enabled at your choice. The Advanced Order Function will allow you to use a variety of advanced functions as described below:

(i)Post-Only

Enabling Post-Only function means that your order will be included in KucCoin’s buy or sell book and will be canceled unless any part of your order is executed and filled immediately due to the fulfillment of your preset Specific Price and Quantity identified by our matching engine.If you choose not to enable Post-Only function, any executable part of your order will be executed and fulfilled immediately and the any remaining part of your order will stay in Atmosphere’s buy or sell book until it is executed and fulfilled.

(ii)Time in Force

Enabling Time in Force means you can decide when and how long you would like to cancel or keep your order in Atmosphere’s buy or sell book. This function includes the following modes:

Good Til Cancelled (GTC): under this mode, your order will stay in Atmosphere’s buy or sell book waiting to be executed and filled in queue and remain valid until it is cancelled.

Good Til Time (GTT): under this mode, your order will be cancelled automatically if it fails to be executed and filled within a preset period time.

Immediate or Cancel (IOC): under this mode, any executable part of your order will be executed and filled immediately, and the remaining part of this order will be cancelled and will be excluded from Atmosphere’s buy or sell book.

Fill or Kill (FOK): under this mode, your order should be executed and filled entirely and immediately, otherwise, it will be cancelled.

Please noted that the default mode under Advanced Order Function regarding Time in Force will be GTC mode unless otherwise choice has been made.

(iii)Hidden Order

Hidden Order can be enabled by clicking on the “Hidden” option when you place a Limit Order or Stop Limit Order. This means that this Hidden Order can be seen by no other users but you on the Atmosphere’s buy or sell book. This mode can help you hide your intentions to buy or sell any Targeted Token. However, other users can still look up the details of this Hidden Order in “Trade History”.

(iv)Iceberg Order

Iceberg Order can be regarded as an upgrade version of Hidden Order and also can be enabled by clicking on the “Hidden” option when you place a Limit Order or Stop Limit Order. When you click on the “Hidden” option, there will be a place for you to input an “effective quantity to display” and in that you can choose how much quantity out of your order that you would like to display in Atmosphere’s buy or sell book.

You acknowledge and agree that (i) the exchange rate information made available via our Services may differ from prevailing exchange rates made available via other sources outside of the Services; (ii) an order may be matched with other order(s) at a number of different prices, based on the quantity of the order and the quantities of existing orders on the order book at the time; and (iii) depending on the volume and prices of orders on the order book at the time when an order is placed, the order may be matched with another order at a price less favorable than the most recent trade price, in some cases significantly so.

7.5. Market volatility. Particularly during periods of high volume, illiquidity, fast movement or volatility in the marketplace for any particular, or one or more Digital Tokens, the actual market rate at which a trade is executed may be different from the prevailing rate indicated via the Services at the time of your order or trade.

It may include, but is not limited to, an incorrect price, date, time, Digital Token pair, fee, or any error or lack of clarity of any information or source.

If an order, trade or transfer is based on a Manifest Error (regardless of whether you or we or any other user gains from the error) and/or executed and/or settled on the basis of Manifest Error, Atmosphere may (but is not obliged to), at its option and sole discretion, act reasonably and in good faith to: (a) correct, reverse or cancel any order, trade or transfer; (b) void a trade as if it had never taken place; and/or (b) amend a trade so that its terms are the same as the trade which would have been executed if there had been no Manifest Error.

We will exercise the foregoing rights as soon as reasonably practicable after we become aware of the Manifest Error. To the extent practicable we will give you prior notice of any action we take under this clause but if this is not practicable we will give you notice as soon as practicable afterwards. If you consider that an order, trade or transfer is based on a Manifest Error, then you must notify us immediately. We will consider in good faith whether it is appropriate to take any action under this Section 7.7 taking into account all the information relating to the situation, including market conditions and your level of expertise.

You hereby authorize Atmosphere to attempt and/or perform any such correction, reversal, cancellation, voiding or amendment described in this section. Atmosphere provides no guarantee or warranty that any such attempt will be successful and will have no responsibility or liability for the Manifest Error or the making or failure of any correction attempt, except if caused by the gross negligence, willful default or fraud of Atmosphere.
