Positions
Close a specific position by contract
Closes the open position in the specified contract by submitting a market order in the opposite direction for the full quantity.
Also cancels any pending orders (brackets, limit/stop) for that contract on the same account.
If the account has reached its profit target and closing makes it flat, the account will be marked as passed.
Returns a command acceptance. Requires x-idempotency-key header.
