Order Not Created account is restricted to liquidation only

I have this error now when I try to purchase stock. " Order Not Created

account is restricted to liquidation only." Someone help please explain.

Hi @ochidi1

Is this a live or paper account? it would be great to find a more personalized solution I suggest sending the email to support@alpaca.markets and sending also your account number/email we need to check it further. Thanks

I have the same problem. Have had it for a long while. I tested today w/ live trading. Simple test trade. Still has it.

@nickmotor For account specific questions send an email to support@alpaca.markets. Ensure you include your 9 digit account number and/or the email associated with the account.

A common reason an account is restricted to liquidation only is the account has a margin call. However, there are other reasons and support should be able to explain the issue.
