What this error means
When your bot shows this error, it means a buy or sell order was rejected by Bitvavo because the order amount is below the minimum required.
Why this happens
Bitvavo requires a minimum trade amount of 5 EUR. For some cryptocurrencies this minimum may be higher, depending on the quantity you want to buy or sell. You can check all minimum trade amounts on the Bitvavo trading rules page.
What you can do
Go to Configuration → Base config → Currencies and amounts and increase your quote currency amount to meet Bitvavo's minimum of 5 EUR.
If you don't want to trade a specific coin that keeps triggering this error, remove it from your coin selection.
Verify it's fixed
After adjusting your settings, check your bot's log. If the error no longer appears, the issue is resolved.
