Our order manager occasionally raised KeyError: unknown order when a fill event arrived on the websocket before the REST place-order call returned. It keyed orders by exchange order id, which it only learned from the REST response. Keying by client order id and buffering unknown events fixed it.
A new bot received order updates for one hour after start, then nothing, while the websocket stayed connected. The listenKey expires after 60 minutes without a keepalive. We fixed keepalives and expiry handling, then moved to the WebSocket API subscription before listenKey retirement.
Our bot believed two orders were still open when they had filled hours earlier. The exchange closes websocket connections after 24 hours; our reconnect logic resubscribed but never checked what happened while disconnected. Reconnect with backoff plus REST reconciliation fixed the state drift.
Our live support chat dropped every connection that stayed quiet for a minute, with close code 1006 and no server error. Nginx's 60-second proxy_read_timeout and the load balancer idle timeout were closing idle sockets. A heartbeat plus proxy tuning fixed it.
Our monitoring service polled depth and klines for 40 symbols every two seconds. During a volatile hour it hit 429 Too much request weight, kept retrying, and earned an HTTP 418 IP ban that also blocked our trading bot on the same IP. Weight-aware limiting and websockets fixed it.
Our local copy of the BTCUSDT order book slowly diverged from the exchange: crossed books, levels that never disappeared, and a best bid above the best ask. We applied depth diffs without buffering, skipped the snapshot alignment rules and never detected gaps. Following the sync procedure fixed it.
