Common Errors

​
Insufficient Funds

Error: "insufficient funds" Cause: Not enough USDC in wallet or subaccount Solution: 
// Check balance before operations
const balances = await client.validatorClient.get.getAccountBalances(address);
const usdcBalance = balances.find((b) => b.denom.includes("usdc"));

​
Insufficient Collateral

Error: "insufficient collateral" Cause: Not enough free collateral to place order Solution: 
const account = await client.indexerClient.account.getParentSubaccount(
  address,
  0
);
const freeCollateral = parseFloat(account.subaccount.freeCollateral);

if (freeCollateral < orderCost) {
  // Deposit more or reduce order size
}

​
Order Expired

Error: Order expired or goodTilBlock in the past Cause: Block height has passed goodTilBlock Solution: 
const currentBlock = await client.validatorClient.get.latestBlockHeight();
const goodTilBlock = currentBlock + 20; // Add buffer

​
Network Errors

Error: "network request failed", "timeout" Cause: Network connectivity issues Solution: 
async function withRetry<T>(fn: () => Promise<T>, maxRetries = 3): Promise<T> {
  for (let i = 0; i < maxRetries; i++) {
    try {
      return await fn();
    } catch (error) {
      if (i === maxRetries - 1) throw error;
      await new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(resolve, 1000 * (i + 1)));
    }
  }
  throw new Error("Max retries exceeded");
}

​
Error Handling Patterns

​
Try-Catch Wrapper

async function safeOperation() {
  try {
    const tx = await client.placeShortTermOrder(/* ... */);
    return { success: true, txHash: tx.hash };
  } catch (error: any) {
    console.error("Operation failed:", error.message);
    return { success: false, error: error.message };
  }
}

​
Specific Error Handling

try {
  await client.depositToSubaccount(subaccount, amount);
} catch (error: any) {
  if (error.message?.includes("insufficient funds")) {
    console.error("Not enough USDC in wallet");
  } else if (error.message?.includes("gas")) {
    console.error("Insufficient gas");
  } else {
    console.error("Unknown error:", error);
  }
}
