Answer 1

Make sure your side and positionSide are appropriate for the order.

I haven't used it in a while because I just didn't like the way it was implemented like the problems you face so I am doing this mostly from memory.

Check your hedge mode settings, I think as a user in GUI you have set hedge mode but I think there might be an API setting or push to make your trades via API in hedgemode

Some other possibilities: Order type. Market/Limit Market type? if you call it that. Spot/Futures? Check API permissions
