Failed trades

Jump to navigation Jump to search

Certain conditions make it so that a trade can fail when using Bisq. Prior to v1.3.2 it was not possible to unfail a trade.

Unfail a failed trade

In many cases a failed trade can be unfailed by doing the following(v1.3.2):

  1. Select the failed trade in the Failed trade tab.
  2. Press ctrl+y or cmd+y on a Mac.
  3. Bisq will verify certain parameters and re-open the trade if possible.
  4. If the trade cannot be unfailed (see errors below) you can submit a fee reimbursement request here


Errors for trades which can be unfailed

Error 1:

An error occurred at task: BuyerVerifiesFinalDelayedPayoutTx
  DelayedPayoutTx is not spending depositTx correctly

Error 2:

Error 3:

Note: Caution must be used when dealing with ERROR 3. This is generated when an open trade uses the same bitcoin address as a failed trade. If the failed trade has locked funds then you must first cancel the open trade, you may then attempt to unfail the failed trade, complete it and re-open a new trade if wanted.
