​
Troubleshooting

Check these:✅ Account number is correct (no spaces/letters) ✅ Password is correct (case-sensitive) ✅ Server name matches broker exactly ✅ Account is active (not suspended)Test: Try logging into MT4/MT5 desktop with same credentials.
Reasons:
  1. Broker server issues (check broker status page)
  2. Password changed (update in TradeWzrd)
  3. Connection limit (some brokers limit API connections)
  4. Network instability (check your internet)
Fix: Click “Reconnect” or update password if changed.
TradeLocker requires API access:
  • Not all brokers support it
  • Check broker’s documentation
  • Some brokers require API access to be enabled first
Contact your broker’s support if TradeLocker API isn’t working.
Yes! Mix any MT4/MT5/TradeLocker accounts from different brokers.Example: IC Markets MT4 + FTMO MT5 + Eightcap TradeLocker
