If you proceed and agree with the form, you will be prompted with three separate choices:

  1. The user does not submit API messages. Please disable this functionality.
  • If you do not interact with the API at all, this choice will disable the API functionality moving forward.
  1. All or some of the API messages submitted are manually approved (e.g by clicking a button) (You do not need to check this box if you only use TWS for manual orders. Check this box if you use a third party front end).
  1. All or Some of the API messages submitted are generated & submitted by an automated system.
  • Any trader using the API to programmatically submit trades without manually approving their submission should select this option for their user.
  • After selecting this option, users will need to provide any software used to place these orders and then denote who manages order submission, whether it is an individual, a rotating team of individuals, or on a per-order basis to denote the External Operator.
