eToro API GET /api/v2/trading/info/demo/orders:lookup

GET/api/v2/trading/info/demo/orders:lookupversion v2Trading (Demo)

Returns the status of one demo order and every position it opened or closed. Look it up by orderId or by the referenceId you sent as x-request-id.

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.

The colon in orders:lookup is part of the path as eToro writes it. status.id runs from 1 Received to 12 PendingTriggeredRate. Shared quota of 60 requests per 60 seconds with the older demo order and close order info calls. Method, path and parameters, with their required flags, were re-read on eToro's reference page for this call on 12 Oct 2026 and agree with this record; the mock reply was not compared field by field.

Parameters

Name	In	Type	Description
x-request-idrequired	header	string (uuid)	A fresh UUID for every request.
orderId	query	integer	Numeric order ID. Mutually exclusive with referenceId.
referenceId	query	string	The x-request-id you sent with the order. Mutually exclusive with orderId.

Authentication headers

Name	Type	Description
x-api-keyrequired	string	Your public API key, which identifies the application. Sent with x-user-key; eToro's reference says an OAuth 2.0 bearer token can be used instead of the key pair, not alongside it. Placeholder only: never paste a real key into this site.
x-user-keyrequired	string	Your user key from Settings > Trading > API Key Management. Each key is tied to one environment (Demo or Real) and to Read or Write permission. Placeholder only.

Request

Written from the method, path and parameters recorded on this page. No demo host is recorded as a plain address for this API, so the samples read the base address from an environment variable. Not executed against a live or demo account. Credentials are read from environment variables on your own machine and are never entered on this site. The request builder writes these same snippets, from the same record.

# Replace each {placeholder}, "..." and 0 with a real value before running.
