Authorizing FCM/Sales Series for Traders

This page is used to choose the FCMs and sales series that an Order Handler is allowed to trade.

CQG client software receives account and trader commodity-related enablements during the logon process. Because you may save changes after the update process has run for the given minute, changes may be applied during the following minute.

Changes made on the FCM/Sales Series Authorization page can affect account and trader commodity-related enablements.
