JSON Serializable error but trade doesn't go through.

[CoachDaniel]

Every call I make works except the one for place trade. I am using the old jupyter notebook has anything changed about how I should execute the auth or how I should make that call? The error is in line with what you say it would be but I cannot get any valuable feedback. What object should I be looking at to determine why the call failed?

I posted the same exact trade on the developer.tdameritrade.com website and it worked.
