# List your options and stock trades

`GET https://app.skylit.ai/api/nexus/v1/trades`

API: Nexus.

Your own options and stock trades, newest first. Futures aren't listed here: read them with the futures account and order history routes.

With `test=true` it lists your test log instead (your 10 newest test orders, futures ones included) and never a real trade.

## Authentication

Send your Skylit API key as a bearer token: `Authorization: Bearer <key>`. No other header is accepted.

## Parameters

| Name | In | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `status` | query | string | no | Which trades to list. (one of `open`, `closed`, `all`; default `all`) |
| `limit` | query | integer | no | Page size. Anything over 200 is read as 200. (default `50`; min 1; max 200) |
| `offset` | query | integer | no | How many trades to skip. (default `0`; min 0; max 100000) |
| `test` | query | string | no | `true` lists your test log instead of your trades. (one of `true`, `false`; default `false`) |

## Example request

```bash
curl "https://app.skylit.ai/api/nexus/v1/trades" \
