Orders only show as "accepted". Not "new" or "filled"

Alpaca Account Troubleshooting
#1

Hi guys

why do my orders always appear with the status “accepted”. All the orders I submit seem to only display the status “accepted” and not “new” or “filled”. I submit orders by using the following python code.

order = self.api.submit_order(symbol, qty, side, type, time_in_force)

print(order)

When I print order, it shows the order with the ‘status’ = accepted.
Is this the reason why my paper trading UI dashboard doesn’t update with any orders within the “order history section” on the Alpaca website?

How can I fix this issue?

thank you,

The market is closed. They only go to the exchange and move out of accepted when the market is open.
