@10:00 it might be better to use a while loop here instead of an if to go through the pages. I'm guessing each page has 100 contracts and since you only go through the first 2 pages that might be why you're getting 200 contracts on the dot. Otherwise API looks really easy to use !
Extremely helpful demo video. It would be hard for a beginner to start using the new API without demonstrations. It would be great to see more of such demo/training videos. Could you also share the jupyter notebook that was used in the demo? Thank you.
Thank you for reaching out and for using our paper trading API! We're continually evaluating new features to improve our platform. Implementing OCO orders for options is on our radar, but we can't provide a precise timeline right now. We appreciate your enthusiasm and recommend keeping an eye on our updates for any new developments.
I am trying to implement my trading app, how do I use the valid access token to start making calls to Alpaca Trading API v2 on behalf of the end-user. No clear documentation to achieve this
Your theme is killing me. You should try to give me the most familiar setup when you show me something. Just use a default setup for a demo. This is an opinion from a developer and a customer to the product lead.

Hi Jackbud427, what condition would you put on the while loop to pull all available contracts that fit the criteria?
@Killedman98 say while(true). Just incase an error breaks the loop, put a try catch inside to make sure it runs forever

Good video. At the 6:00 minute mark, 'options_enabled' should be updated to 'has_options'.
API demonstration was very valuable. Thank you.
Good demo! Where can I download the coding?
i cant seem to find or setup an api key. clicking the menu link just keeps on taking me to the documentation.
Very nice get started demo
Thank you so much!
I have been using the paper trading API, when will alpaca support OCO orders for options?
