In the following case, the _on_log method is used to output the log. The my_on_events_message method is to receive order status change messages.

import logging

from webull.trade.events.types import EVENT_TYPE_POSITION, POSITION_STATUS_CHANGED
from webull.trade.trade_events_client import TradeEventsClient

your_app_key = "<your_app_key>"
your_app_secret = "<your_app_secret>"
account_id = "<your_account_id>"
region_id = "us"

# PRD env host: events-api.webull.com
# Test env host: us-openapi-alb.uat.webullbroker.com
optional_api_endpoint = "<event_api_endpoint>"


def _on_log(level, log_content):
print(logging.getLevelName(level), log_content)


def my_on_events_message(event_type, subscribe_type, payload, raw_message):
if EVENT_TYPE_POSITION == event_type and POSITION_STATUS_CHANGED == subscribe_type:
print('event payload:%s' % payload)

if __name__ == '__main__':

# Create EventsClient instance
trade_events_client = TradeEventsClient(your_app_key, your_app_secret, region_id)
# For non production environment, you need to set the domain name of the subscription service through eventsclient. For example, the domain name of the UAT environment is set here
# trade_events_client = TradeEventsClient(your_app_key, your_app_secret, region_id, host=optional_api_endpoint)
trade_events_client.on_log = _on_log

# Set the callback function when the event data is received.
# The data of order status change is printed here

trade_events_client.on_events_message = my_on_events_message
# Set the account ID to be subscribed and initiate the subscription. This method is synchronous
trade_events_client.do_subscribe([account_id])
