 !!! Warning
     `tradable_balance_ratio` applies to the current balance (free balance + tied up in trades). Therefore, assuming a starting balance of 1000, a configuration of `tradable_balance_ratio=0.99` will not guarantee that 10 units will always remain available on the exchange. The free amount may reduce to 5 units if the total balance is reduce to 500 (either by a losing streak, or by withdrawing balance).
 
+#### Amend last stake amount
+
+Assuming we have a `balance=1000` (USDT), `stake_amount=400`, and `max_open_trades=3`.
+The bot would open 2 trades, and will be unable to fill the last trading slot, since the requested 400 USDT are no longer available, since 800 USDT are already tied in other trades.
+
+To overcome this, the option `amend_last_stake_amount` can be set to `True`, which will enable the bot to reduce stake_amount to the available balance in order to fill the last trade slot.
+
+In the example above this would mean:
+
+- Trade1: 400 USDT
+- Trade2: 400 USDT
+- Trade3: 200 USDT
+
+!!! Note
+   This option only applies with [Static stake amount](#static-stake-amount) - since [Dynamic stake amount](#dynamic-stake-amount) divides the balances evenly.
+
 #### Static stake amount
 
 The `stake_amount` configuration statically configures the amount of stake-currency your bot will use for each trade.
