 ## Self-Trade Prevention
 
 The system implements self-trade prevention to stop users from accidentally trading with themselves. The following modes are available:
 
 - `cancel_newest`: Rejects the incoming order if it would match with an existing order from the same user
 - `cancel_oldest`: Cancels existing orders and adds the new one
 - `cancel_both`: Cancels both existing and new orders
