Installation

pip install projectx-sdk

For development, you can install with additional tools:

pip install projectx-sdk[dev]

Quick Start

from projectx_sdk import ProjectXClient, OrderType, OrderSide

# Initialize with API key
client = ProjectXClient(
    username="your_username",
    api_key="your_api_key",
    environment="topstepx"  # Or another supported environment
)

# Get all active accounts
accounts = client.accounts.search(only_active_accounts=True)
account_id = accounts[0].id if accounts else None

if account_id:
    # Search for contracts
    contracts = client.contracts.search(search_text="NQ", live=False)

    if contracts:
        contract_id = contracts[0].id

        # Place a market order
        order = client.orders.place(
            account_id=account_id,
            contract_id=contract_id,
            type=OrderType.MARKET,
            side=OrderSide.BUY,
            size=1
        )

        print(f"Order placed with ID: {order['orderId']}")

        # Set up real-time order updates
        def on_order_update(order_data):
            print(f"Order update: {order_data}")

        client.realtime.user.subscribe_orders(account_id, callback=on_order_update)
        client.realtime.start()
