JSOG get position size in volume
05 Dec 2023, 22:40

Is there a way to get the size of a position using it's position id? I am able to open, close and list positions but would love to get the volume of the position since I need this to close the position.

Thanks in advance!

Hi there,

The position's volume is available in ProtoOAPosition.ProtoOATradeData

Best regards,

Thanks but I am unable to find out how to get this precisely? I am using the JSON API and I cannot find what payload to request to get this?

I've looked at this list and haven't found this yet. Can you help me with that? Thanks!

Isn't there an payload ID to use? For eg ProtoOAOrderListByPositionIdReq uses payloadType as ‘2179’. What's that for this message?

Hi there,

No because this is not a message, it's a data structure(ProtoOATradeData) which is a member of another data structure(ProtoOAPosition), returned by the ProtoOAReconcileRes
