I want to assign a variable to the stop loss and take profit in the following phrase. According to the exchange documentation, these values are constants as follows(for example: 102217.88): paramsMap = { "symbol": symbol, "side": side, "positionSide": positionSide, "type": "MARKET", "quantity": amount, "stopLoss": "{\"type\": \"STOP_MARKET\", \"stopPrice\": 102217.88,\"workingType\":\"MARK_PRICE\"}", "takeProfit": "{\"type\": \"TAKE_PROFIT_MARKET\", \"stopPrice\": 102363.2178,\"price\": 102363.2178,\"workingType\":\"MARK_PRICE\"}" } When I use the string.format() function as below: "stopLoss": "{\"type\": \"STOP_MARKET\", \"stopPrice\": {0},\"workingType\":\"MARK_PRICE\"}".format(str(sl)), I get this error: KeyError: '"type"' So, how can I pass the sl variable value to this string? Edit: I put the whole of my function that places an order in the exchange for more clarification. def PlaceOrder(symbol, side, positionSide, amount, tp, sl): payload = {} path = '/openApi/swap/v2/trade/order' method = "POST" paramsMap = { "symbol": symbol, "side": side, "positionSide": positionSide, "type": "MARKET", "quantity": amount, "stopLoss": "{\"type\": \"STOP_MARKET\", \"stopPrice\": {},\"workingType\":\"MARK_PRICE\"}".format(str(sl)), "takeProfit": "{\"type\": \"TAKE_PROFIT_MARKET\", \"stopPrice\": {},\"price\": 102363.2178,\"workingType\":\"MARK_PRICE\"}".format(str(tp)) } paramsStr = request_client.parseParam(paramsMap) response = request_client.send_request(method, path, paramsStr, payload) return response.json() According to JonSG's comment, I use the double {}; however, I get this error again: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- KeyError Traceback (most recent call last) Cell In[4], line 5 3 tp, sl = Bingx.RiskReward(symbol, buy=True, risk=0.12, reward=0.06,leverage=30) 4 print(f"tp:{tp} sl:{sl}") ----> 5 response = Bingx.PlaceOrder(symbol, 'BUY', 'LONG', 0.0001, tp, sl) 6 response Cell In[1], line 465, in Bingx.PlaceOrder(symbol, side, positionSide, amount, tp, sl) 457 path = '/openApi/swap/v2/trade/order' 458 method = "POST" 459 paramsMap = { 460 "symbol": symbol, 461 "side": side, 462 "positionSide": positionSide, 463 "type": "MARKET", 464 "quantity": amount, --> 465 "stopLoss": "{\"type\": \"STOP_MARKET\", \"stopPrice\": {{}},\"workingType\":\"MARK_PRICE\"}".format(str(sl)), 466 "takeProfit": "{\"type\": \"TAKE_PROFIT_MARKET\", \"stopPrice\": {{}},\"workingType\":\"MARK_PRICE\"}".format(str(tp)) 467 } 468 paramsStr = request_client.parseParam(paramsMap) 469 response = request_client.send_request(method, path, paramsStr, payload) KeyError: '"type"' Continue reading...
