- Requires a signed-in account and permission to access this resource. Use identifiers returned by your own account's earlier requests.
- Requires a connected paper-trading account. Only whole-share quantities are supported; live environments are rejected. Read broker status and verify the symbol, side and quantity before submitting.
- Protected writes require an allowed Origin, the CSRF cookie and matching X-CSRF-Token header.
- Send a fresh X-Request-Nonce and current X-Request-Timestamp on every attempt. Reuse an idempotency key only for the same logical action.
