Trades in excess of 7 per hour

Regarding the following excerpt of the README:

A user of wstrade-api has observed that trades in excess of 7 per hour are rejected by the WealthSimple Trade servers. You can use this observation as a baseline of how many trades you can perform on an hourly basis.

Is it possible that this is due to the expiration of an access token? See the Wealthsimple API. For the record, I have not used wstrade-api to make any trades yet, so I can't comment on the 7-per-hour restriction personally.

Edit: there is also the rate limit. Not sure if these are useful observations.

Edit again: Oops, I just realized this documentation is for WS, not WS Trade 😖 I'll keep this up in case it is somehow useful

I don't believe it has to do with the token expiring. The order goes through but its status appears as rejected. So the request is a 201, but the WealthSimple Trade market backend rejects the order.

Here is a picture of rejected status trade.
