Hi.
Please, anybody knows how can I get the actual information of a active contract including the value of "Total profit/loss" that appears in the Deriv Report for the open positions? (attached image).
The API Price Proposal: Open contracts dont have a element for the active profit/loss while the contract is open.

Thanks.

I need help with making a copy trading app

Hi,

I have a technical question in regards to the API for buy contract. In the Buy Contract API, the required JSON schema to pass as shown below.

My questions are:

What is Contract_type?

Can you give me a list valid contract type?

I will only trade on Rise/Fall type, where and what value should I pass in if I wanted to buy a rise binary option?

Regards,

Eng Tang

I am currently registered with a virtual account, but will upgrade to real account.
