# Get your account

> The key owner's own paper account: balance, net worth, open stake, holds, the current run, P&L since the last reset, lifetime P&L, resets, busts, the 30-day cooldown and whether resets are turned on. Positions and orders are counts only. With run=current the lifetime fields are left out: a private view of one run, for the owner only. Not cached.

  summary: >-
    Arena Predictions paper trading with an API key: read, and place paper
    orders with trade:write. Arena-owned data only.
  description: >-
    Arena Predictions (arena-predictions.com) is a sandbox for paper trading
    prediction markets at live prices. Every endpoint here serves Arena's
    sandbox, where every trade is a paper trade (mode "paper"); routing to live
    trading is coming. Keys are read-only and reach Arena-owned data only: the
    key's own identity and account, the leaderboards and published trader
    records with their resets and settled picks. Keys are managed with the
    signed-in browser session, never with a key. No exchange ticker, market
    title, entry price or venue price appears in any keyed response; the owner's
    own portfolio carries the owner's own paper numbers (a resting order's
    limitCents, a position's costDollars and contracts). Balances carry over:
    every account starts with 100,000 paper dollars, and a reset (at most one
    every 30 days, shown on a public profile) starts a new run. 1.2.0: seasons
    removed (no season field anywhere), leaderboard windows and kinds, trader
    resets, GET /account. 1.3.0: accounts are private by default. A private
    trader answers private: true with every P&L and rank null (resets and busts
    0) and an empty pick list; a public trader whose earlier trades are still
    hidden has numbersShown: false and no P&L or rank. The key owner reads their
    own picks (each with placedPrivate and shown) and their own eval rows (GET
    /me/eval) with portfolio:read. No key can make an account public. 1.4.0:
    keys are managed by a person's session, on the website or as a signed-in
    CLI's session token (arena keys), never by a key; keys rotate with a grace
    period; every keyed answer carries the plan and its counts (RateLimit-*,
    Arena-Quota-*, Arena-Plan) and GET /usage says where the account stands; a
    new scope, markets:read, reads instruments, games and quotes; GET /portfolio
    and /portfolio/trades read the owner's positions, orders and trades. Venue
    references and venue prices are served only while the venue-data switch is
    on (it ships off): until then the quotes routes answer 403 venue_data_off
    and nothing keyed names a ticker or a venue's price. 1.5.0: GET /eval, the
    public eval board (records:read), each row with 95% intervals clustered by
    game. 1.6.0: GET /traders/{traderId}/track-record, a trader's Ed25519-signed
    90-day record exactly as Arena signed it (records:read; it names Kalshi
    series inside its signed bytes, so it is served only while the venue-data
    switch is on), and tiedWithAbove on each eval row (null while this row's or
    the row above's interval is unknown). 1.7.0: a key created with trade:write
    (only when asked for by name: the Settings checkbox, arena keys create
    --trade, or scopes in the body) places paper orders with POST
    /portfolio/orders and cancels them with DELETE /portfolio/orders/{orderId},
    at Kalshi's paths. Market and limit orders, buys by instrument or ticker and
    sells of a whole position, each with an idempotencyKey: the same key again
    answers the stored order with replayed: true and places nothing. Hard trade
    limits are always enforced: per key 10 new orders a minute and 50 a day, and
    20 sells and cancels a minute; per account, across every key and connected
    app, 20 new orders a minute, 100 a day, and 40 sells and cancels a minute.
    The keyless website routes (/api/quotes/{instrumentId}, /api/quotes/batch,
    /api/gaps, /api/gaps/{instrumentId}) are described in their own document,
    /openapi-public.json.
