Cdcx Check Balance

Check Balance

When to Use

• Confirm credentials work before any trading workflow
• Report current wallet balance to the user
• Script gating: "only trade if available USDT > X"

Requires authentication.

Preflight

# Are credentials resolvable?
cdcx account info -o json > /dev/null 2>&1 && echo ok || echo "auth not configured"

If this fails, redirect the user to cdcx setup or the cdcx-auth-setup skill.

Full Balance Snapshot

cdcx account summary -o json

Response shape (trimmed):

{
  "data": {
    "total_available_balance": "10000.00",
    "total_margin_balance": "12500.00",
    "position_balances": [
      {
        "instrument_name": "USD_Stablecoin",
        "quantity": "12500.00",
        "market_value": "12500.00",
        "total_available_balance": "10000.00",
        "total_margin_balance": "12500.00",
        "total_position_value": "0.00"
      }
    ]
  }
}

The top-level total_available_balance and total_margin_balance are account-wide. Per-asset detail lives in position_balances[].

Ergonomic Scripts

Gate a trade on available USDT

available=$(cdcx account summary -o json | \
    jq -r '.data.total_available_balance // 0')

if awk -v a="$available" 'BEGIN{exit !(a+0 > 500)}'; then
    cdcx trade order BUY BTC_USDT 0.001 --type MARKET -o json
else
    echo "Insufficient USDT: $available"
fi

Summary line

cdcx account summary -o json | jq -r '
    "Margin: \(.data.total_margin_balance) USD · Available: \(.data.total_available_balance) USD"'

All currencies, one per line

cdcx account summary -o json | \
    jq -r '.data.position_balances[] | "\(.instrument_name): \(.quantity)"'

Sub-Account Balances

cdcx account subaccount-balances -o json

Returns balances for every sub-account under the master — useful for multi-account ops.

Notes

• total_margin_balance and total_available_balance are valued in USD; position_balances[].quantity is in the native currency
• The API schema uses position_balances for the per-currency breakdown even though the user-facing concept is "balances" — do not confuse this with derivatives positions (that's cdcx account positions)
• cdcx account summary is tier sensitive_read — no acknowledgement required in MCP mode
