Deriv statement

messagestatementDeriv WebSocket APIWebSocketAccount

Returns the account's transactions: buys, sells, deposits and withdrawals, filtered by date and type and paged with limit and offset.

Risk warning: CFDs and spread bets are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. You can lose money on these products, and each provider publishes its own loss figure under FCA rules. You should consider whether you understand how they work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. Automated and API trading can amplify losses through bugs, connectivity failures and runaway orders.

This is a message of the Deriv WebSocket API, not an HTTP endpoint. It has no method and no path: it is sent as JSON over an open WebSocket connection.

The message

Name: statement
Direction: Request, sent by the client
Carried by: WebSocket. Deriv's page marks this call as needing a login with the trade scope, so it is sent on the connection of one account. The demo and real addresses are not opened as printed: POST /trading/v1/options/accounts/{accountId}/otp returns the address for one account with a one time password already in it.
Demo account: wss://api.derivws.com/trading/v1/options/ws/demo
Real account: wss://api.derivws.com/trading/v1/options/ws/real

Limits that apply at Deriv

Limit	Value	Scope	Source
Headline limit	80/min per logged in user (REST)Sources conflict developers.deriv.com states 60, checked 12 Oct 2026. Deriv's API overview in the text form it publishes for AI tools gives REST 60 requests a minute per token, where its Limits page gives 80 a minute per logged in user. The same overview also gives 100 WebSocket requests a second per connection, 100 active subscriptions per connection and 5 concurrent WebSocket connections per user, none of which the Limits page mentions. Deriv's own pages disagree; the conflict is labelled, not resolved. Pace against 60.	user, REST	developers.deriv.comchecked 12 Oct 2026
