Hello sir i would like to know if now alpaca accounts are Margin, im never using margin and im under 2500$.
When i sell a stock, available cash for settlement immediately, is directly updated on account.cash?
The system handle this automaticly?
If money not settled, account.cash on to api will return 0, or the current amount without the pending money, i really want avoid be restricted by pdt rising rule
In my snippet i do
cash = float(api.get_account().cash)
Notional = 15 #for dolar
If cash >= notional:
Print(“ok u can buy”)
else:
Print(“you can’t buy”)
In paper mode i never rise pdt rule, but on ur website it was very old updates, from 2023 and the company growth so fast.
Thanks a lot.
Greetings’
