Market order sequence

Request GET /quote/{symbol} with the account, side, and exact quantity or cashValue.
Validate quoteExpiresAt, fees, currency, and sufficient funds.
Submit POST /trade or POST /users/{userId}/trade with the matching quoteId.
Include a unique Idempotency-Key.
Follow the order through REST, SSE, or signed webhooks.

LIMIT, STOP, and STOP_LIMIT orders supply trigger/limit prices and do not use quoteId. They return WORKING while resting, may trigger later as order.triggered, and can be cancelled while active.

{
  "symbol": "SCOM.KE",
  "type": "BUY",
  "orderType": "LIMIT",
  "quantity": 100,
  "limitPrice": 16.25,
  "timeInForce": "GTC"
}

Every write must be safe to retry with the same idempotency key. A new key represents a new operation, not a retry of the previous request. See Order Lifecycles for terminal states and Advanced Order Types for triggers and expiry.
