Main Reasons for Cancellation
1. The Buyer Did Not Pay in Time

The cryptocurrency is unlocked and returned to the balance
The trade is not completed

The buyer can cancel the order before payment is confirmed.
Common reasons:
Changed their mind about the trade
Payment details were not suitable

How to Avoid Sell Order Cancellations
