Using Price Estimates

Use price estimates to decide between market and limit orders: 
estimate = response.json()

if not estimate['sufficient_liquidity']:
    print("Not enough liquidity. Use limit order instead.")
elif estimate['estimated_price'] > 1.50:
    print("Price too high. Wait or use limit order.")
else:
    print(f"Good price. Proceed with market order at ~${estimate['estimated_price']}/hr")
