I can't seem to post a trade to my real account. Most of the code below is from the trading_robot.py sample. Is this not the way to execute an order? I get NotNulError: A validation error occurred while processing the request. (this is under the _make_request function) in client.py.
`
Import libraries

Grab configuration values.
config = ConfigParser() config_fpath = r'C:\Users\timcr\Desktop\Documents\stocks\td_ameritrade_api\configs\config.ini' config.read(config_fpath) CLIENT_ID = config.get('main', 'CLIENT_ID') REDIRECT_URI = config.get('main', 'REDIRECT_URI') CREDENTIALS_PATH = config.get('main', 'JSON_PATH') ACCOUNT_NUMBER = config.get('main', 'ACCOUNT_NUMBER')
Initalize the robot.
trading_robot = PyRobot( client_id=CLIENT_ID, redirect_uri=REDIRECT_URI, credentials_path=CREDENTIALS_PATH, trading_account=ACCOUNT_NUMBER, paper_trading=False )
Create a new Trade Object.
new_trade = trading_robot.create_trade( trade_id='long_msft', enter_or_exit='enter', long_or_short='short', order_type='lmt', price=150.00 )
Make it Good Till Cancel.
new_trade.good_till_cancel(cancel_time=datetime.now())
Change the session
new_trade.modify_session(session='am')
Add an Order Leg.
new_trade.instrument( symbol='MSFT', quantity=2, asset_type='EQUITY' )
Add a Stop Loss Order with the Main Order.
new_trade.add_stop_loss( stop_size=.10, percentage=False )
Execute order
trading_robot.execute_orders(new_trade)`
