# Account trading policy

> Inspect effective rules, restrictions, and account locks before submitting API orders.

## Inspect policy before trading

Call `GET /v1/accounts/{account_id}/trading-policy` using a read or trade credential.
Only owned, non-archived accounts in the credential's live or sandbox environment
and account allowlist are visible. Other account IDs return `404`.

The response's `data` contains a timestamped, advisory snapshot:

| Field                             | Meaning                                                                                                                                                      |
| --------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `manual_trading_blocked`          | The account is inactive, a payout is pending, or copying locks manual instructions, including reductions.                                                    |
| `opening_exposure_restricted`     | An account-wide condition prevents opening or increasing exposure. A false value does not guarantee an order will pass.                                      |
| `restriction`                     | The user's reduce-only restriction, public reason, and flag time, or null.                                                                                   |
| `trading_halt`                    | Platform-wide opening halt and halted market categories. Category halts must be checked against the chosen market.                                           |
| `competition`                     | Competition window or elimination restriction and symbol/coin allowlist, or null. An empty allowlist allows all markets.                                     |
| `copy_scope_blocked`              | An enabled group led by this account has a member outside the credential's ownership, live/sandbox, archive, or account-allowlist boundary.                  |
| `copy_follower_locked`            | An enabled copy group or outstanding lead-stop cleanup locks manual trading.                                                                                 |
| `copy_stop`                       | Stop reason and stop, cleanup-completion, and acknowledgment timestamps. Unset timestamps are null.                                                          |
| `account_rules`                   | Effective rule IDs and parameters, resolved from defaults, global policy, current plan and evaluation step, and supported account overrides.                 |
| `limits`                          | Current platform configuration, including cooldown, trade windows, position and resting-order limits, minimum notional, execution delay and risk parameters. |
| `unlimited_trade_count_threshold` | Trade-window values at or above this threshold disable that count window; they are not a remaining allowance.                                                |
| `slippage_tolerance_bps`          | Minimum and maximum accepted slippage tolerance.                                                                                                             |
| `maximum_total_notional_usd`      | Configured total exposure ceiling for the account model and size, or null when absent.                                                                       |
| `fee_exempt`                      | Whether this account has the platform's fee exemption.                                                                                                       |

The `limits` object uses snake\_case keys such as `max_open_positions`,
`max_position_value_usd`, `max_resting_orders`, `min_order_notional_usd`,
`order_cooldown_ms`, and `trades_per_minute`.

Current plan rules replace retired account snapshots for daily loss, drawdown,
consistency, and profit target. Minimum-trading-day account overrides are retired.
Use returned values instead of copying plan numbers into your integration.
A zero percentage disables that rule. The `evaluation-inactivity` (30 days)
and `funded-inactivity` (7 days) windows are universal product rules pinned in
code; they are reported for every account except rule-less competition
products and cannot be changed by plan or account.

## Market exposure caps

A market's exposure cap limits combined open notional (long plus short) across
accounts of the same challenge model and account size. The server includes
existing exposure and rejects a fill that would exceed the configured cap.
Closing or reducing positions remains allowed.

Exposure-cap enforcement defaults to enabled for newly added markets. A
numerical cap must still be configured; enabling the switch alone does not set
a dollar limit. Check the [current market caps](https://myfundedperpetuals.com/exposure-caps)
for the applicable limits.

## Treat preflight as advisory

Fetch policy when selecting an account and refresh after a relevant rejection or
configuration change. Do not poll this endpoint once per second: it consumes the
shared [REST read budget](/errors-and-rate-limits).

A true `copy_scope_blocked` means the credential cannot cover the configured
copy group as a whole. Use a credential authorized for every member in the same
environment, or change the group through the website. A false value does not
cover stale working copied orders left by earlier configurations: modification
and cancellation check those affected accounts again at execution.

The snapshot does not reserve margin, position slots, order slots, trade-window
allowances, or market liquidity. It does not evaluate a proposed order or fetch
fresh prices. Check market metadata and an appropriate quote for market-specific
constraints. Placement and settlement remain authoritative for current balances,
rate-window usage, cooldown, market hours, competition markets, and all other
order-dependent rules. Account evaluation rules can also depend on stage and
fresh equity. The saved slippage-protection maximum is enforced server-side and included here.
Other saved interface preferences, such as display defaults, are not an order policy.
