position.close(): status 400 > "invalid JSON body, must be an object"

[FXGears]

Latest v20 release gices me: "Invalid JSON body, must be an object" as the error message on a 400 response to using the position.close command.

my code looks like this:
req = api.position.close('account_id', 'EUR_USD')

Auth and everything else works (same API context can place orders, list orders, get account info.. etc..)

It appears to only work if I include the longUnits or shortUnits variables... but the documentation and method both suggest this should not be needed.

The same happens just listening price data as well.

There are plenty of cases when the JSON loaded without try-catch blocks.... Wondering it is blind trust to oanda APIs?
