Error: Selected amount could not be exchanged at the current rate. Please try again with lower amount

YAY I just got an email saying that my pending status was now approved!  I can now exchange XRP/USD/EUR!!!  How exciting.

So, I tried exchanging 12 XRP to USD, which was worth $1.03 at the time.

I got the error "Error: Selected amount could not be exchanged at the current rate. Please try again with lower amount."

I tried 1 XRP.... same error.

This is not okay.

If I remember correctly joelkatz mentioned that you can best make a payment to yourself if you want to exchange

Are you talking about Gatehub? Exchange page? Trade page?

Also, remember you can't trade or withdraw your wallet reserve (20 XRP base reserve + 5 XRP per trust line).

This was on Gatehub.

And no, it was not dipping into the wallet reserve.

Eventually it did work.  I traded 12 XRP into USD, but this error gives me pause because later down the road if I want to exchange a larger amount of XRP to USD and it says I cannot, then that would suck!

How exactly does one use Gatehub to make a payment to yourself in USD from XRP?
