# Rate limited (429)

Hyperliquid limits how much a connection can ask for, both per network address and per trading
account. A brand-new, low-volume account has a smaller budget than one with trading history
behind it.

Background refreshes (price feeds, periodic resyncs) back off automatically when the limit is
hit and retry shortly after, you may see a chart or feed pause for a few seconds rather than
update live. That's expected and resolves on its own.

Actions you take yourself, placing an order, cancelling, editing, are never delayed or queued
behind this. If one of those is rejected for a rate limit, wait a few seconds and try again.
