  Unfortunately, it is not possible to increase the rate limit on GDAX for individual accounts. The rate limit is set by the platform to ensure fair usage and prevent abuse. However, there are a few strategies you can employ to work within the rate limit. One option is to optimize your trading strategy to minimize the number of API calls you make. Another option is to consider upgrading to a higher-tier account, as higher-tier accounts often come with higher rate limits. Finally, you can explore using other exchanges that may have higher rate limits if the rate limit on GDAX is consistently hindering your trading activities.

  No, you cannot increase the rate limit on GDAX for your account. The rate limit is in place to maintain the stability and fairness of the platform. It ensures that all users have equal access to the API and prevents any single user from overwhelming the system. While it can be frustrating to encounter rate limit restrictions, it is important to respect and work within the established limits to maintain a stable trading environment for all users.
