# Get Account Trading Status

`GET /accounts/{account_number}/trading-status`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.cert.tastyworks.com`
- URL: `https://api.cert.tastyworks.com/accounts/{account_number}/trading-status`
- Auth: none declared

Returns the current trading status for an account, reporting whether and how it may trade. If `is-closed` or `is-frozen` is true, trading is blocked entirely; if `is-closing-only` (or `is-cryptocurrency-closing-only` / `is-futures-closing-only`) is true, only closing trades are allowed, and `is-risk-reducing-only` restricts the account to de-risking activity. The response also exposes per-feature toggles, the live `day-trade-count`, the `options-level` tier, and margin-call flags. Check trading status before building order flows so restrictions surface up front rather than as rejected orders.

## Path parameters

- `account_number` string, required

## Response `200`

The account's current trading status.

- object
  - `data` TradingStatus, required: Reports whether and how an account may trade. Combines hard gates (`is-closed`, `is-frozen`, `is-closing-only`, `is-risk-reducing-only`) with per-feature toggles, margin-call flags, the live `day-trade-count`, the permitted `options-level`, and margin-calculation settings.
    - `id` integer: Internal identifier for the trading-status record.
    - `account-number` string: The account number this trading status applies to.

The maximum multiplier scales with the account's net liquidating value. Decimal value serialized as a JSON string (e.g. "150.25").

Decimal value serialized as a JSON string (e.g. "150.25").
