Client suspended with the APi


sybessonne

Question

Hello, 

I'm a developer. I would like to launch trades automatically with the IG API.

But I'm currently suspended. I can't create a session with the API. I think this is because I use it too much maybe.

I have the message : 

"errorCode": "error.security.client-suspended"

 

Could you explain me how to remove the restriction to be allowed to reuse the API ?

 

Cordially

Hi @sybessonne,

It seems that your Demo account is locked (possibly password) once locked it will be suspended. Please reach out to helpdesk.uk@ig.com or use our live chat feature to contact our helpdesk with your account details to unlock your account.

All the best - Arvin

Hi all,

I have the same issue where I'm getting a 401 response with a '{"errorCode":"error.security.client-suspended"}'

This WAS on my DEMO credentials (must have been during my integration build, whoops. I did get everything working with my LIVE credentials though)

I since contacted the helpdesk.au@ig.com to share the error code and request they reset my DEMO credentials/account so I can access it ..

Helpdesk.au@ then asked if I was using the right credentials (of course I am) .. 

So I ran a couple of tests using my LIVE credentials to share with helpdesk.au@.ig.com to demonstrate that if you use the right credentials, you actually get a different error.. i.e. you get a 403 error:

- of '{"errorCode":"error.security.invalid-details"}' if you use the wrong password

- of '{"errorCode":"validation.pattern.invalid.authenticationRequest.identifier"}'  if you use the wrong username and password

- of  '{"errorCode":"error.security.api-key-invalid"}'' if you use the wrong API key but the right username and password

In doing so and helping helpdesk.au@ by demonstrating these different codes vs. scenarios I've now locked myself out of my DEMO account - per my original request (which was probably a whoops on my part), and now my LIVE account through using these credentials to demonstrate to them what the error codes are and what they mean.

For noting, I've been using my LIVE API credentials for 2 months now with no issue (so I know my integration is robust) but wanted to get access to the DEMO account to test my automated strategies before deploying into the LIVE environment.

Can someone please help ... I'm not sure that helpdesk.au@ understands the issue (and I mean no offense, just doesn't seem they have documentation to support the difference(s) in error codes etc. and what this code means they need to do at their end?)..

Thanks

Cam

Wave Cancel invalid level: 1.10192 The "EURUSD Elliott Wave Analysis Trading Lounge Day Chart" for 6 December 23, delves into the Euro/U.S. Dollar (EURUSD) pair within a daily timeframe, employing Elliott Wave analysis to provide traders with a comprehensive view of market dynamics. Identified as a "Counter Trend" analysis, the focus is on potential reversals against the prevailing market trend. This is crucial for traders aiming to capitalize on corrective movements or trend changes. The analysis characterizes the current market "Mode" as "impulsive as A," signifying that the observed price action is impulsive and falls within the context of an A-wave in the Elliott Wave structure. Impulsive movements are typically strong and directional, often marking the initiation of a new trend. The primary "Structure" is labeled as "blue wave 2 of A," detailing the current phase within the Elliott Wave framework. Understanding the wave structure is fundamental for traders to gauge the market's position in the broader cycle. The specified "Position" is denoted as "Y of wave 2/B," indicating the current wave count within the larger degree of correction. This level of detail assists traders in comprehending the intricacies of the ongoing correction. The directional guidance for "Next Lower Degrees" is projected as "blue wave 3 of A," suggesting an anticipation of the next impulsive wave within the overarching correction. This information is valuable for traders seeking alignment with the expected market direction. In terms of "Details," the analysis notes that "After blue wave 1, now blue wave 2 as a correction started." This informs traders that the market is currently undergoing a corrective phase following the completion of the first impulsive wave. The "Wave Cancel invalid level" is identified as "1.10192," serving as a critical threshold. If the market reaches this level, it would invalidate the current wave count, prompting a reconsideration of the prevailing market conditions. To summarize, the EURUSD Elliott Wave Analysis for the day chart on 6 December 23, presents a counter-trend impulsive movement labeled as "wave 2 of A." The analysis provides insights into the wave structure, position, expected next wave, and a crucial level for potential wave cancellation.
