The currency trade is a great place to make money and ROBLOX encourages users to do so, but currency traders like myself are having a problem which can cause them to lose tens of thousands of ROBUX in one click. A while ago, I made a terrible currency trade mistake. I ended up trading 13.1k R$ for 13.1k Tix, which by any logic is bad. Why? I missed a key and didn't check. I lost an unbearable amount of money. People in currency trade groups have posted about losing as much as 30,000 Robux in one mistake. This isn't fair at all. We worked for ages to get our money and then lost it all because we missed a number. So, what do I want done to stop these mistakes happening? A safety-catch. We would set what the max rate (the maximum number of Tix we're willing to pay for one Robuck) and the minimum rate (the minimum number of Tix we're willing to trade a Robuck for) and if we ever try to go outside of these boundaries, it wouldn't let us. The safety-catch would be applicable to both market and limit orders and we could change it whenever we want.

Sonic, you cannot cancel trades that have already gone through and you can't get money that's already been traded back. Kotele, so if someone misclicked they should lose everything they worked for? No. Mistakes happen. Even checking a billion times won't keep the mistakes away forever.

So there shouldn't be banisters on bridges? There shouldn't be wet floor signs?

Hammy, you cannot cancel trades after they're completed or withdraw any traded currency. People make typos and their mistakes are exploited in seconds. The best way is to just not make a mistake in the first place, this would help with that.

I have foolishly traded 3,000 robux for nothing more then 1 ticket due to my stupidity when I was younger. This would be helpful and stop many kids from making mistakes such as mine or yours.
