4. When an Ad is Online, the Ad is visible to takers, can be picked and generate orders from it. When an Ad is Offline, the Ad is invisible to takers, cannot be picked or generate orders, but the ongoing orders can continue. Note that the crypto bound to this Ad remains frozen. When an Ad is Inactive, the Ad is invisible to takers, nor can it be picked or generate orders. The crypto bound to this Ad will be released. If there’s ongoing orders to this Ad, it cannot be deactivated.
Note：
- Creating an ad will freeze the available balance in the spot wallet, and the frozen quantity depends on the total trading quantity set in the advertisement.
- Inactivating an ad will unfreeze the remaining available balance in the ad.
- Each cryptocurrency type, and each direction, can only have 1 ad in active. For example: a user can have 1 buying-USDT ad and 1 selling-USDT ad, can’t have 2 buying-USDT ads.
Order Trigger
While an ad is still active and a taker initiates a trade, the merchant will receive a reminder in number circled in red on the P2P main page. Users can also hover their mouse to it, and it will also display the current status of the order.
