Hi I want to change my brokerage passwords and need to know how that will affect C2.
Do I need to Stop Autotrading first?
If I stop, and Leave Positions Open, what will happen when I restart, will the system know about the prior positions?
If not, then ?
Or do I completely re-do setup?
There’s a very nasty zero-day exploit out there right now, logs keystrokes and gathers browser password data.
Also, the old wisdom about passwords is wrong. A regular desktop machine can crack any 8-character password in approx 13 minutes, now matter how many %&# symbols you use. Better to have a few long misspelled unrelated words with a number: unbeleevable8galaktiksandwitch
Mark,
It depends on the broker. For most, we don’t even need a password so this is not an issue.
For MBTrading: Once you change your brokerage password we will lose access to your account. Simply update your autotrade setup with your new password an autotrading will continue smoothly.
