Logging On and Off the Trading System

In addition to logging on to CQG IC, you must also log on to the trading gateway in order to trade. An ID and password supplied by your FCM are required to log on to the gateway.

If you are not logged on to trade, trading applications indicate that you are offline.

If you are logged on to the gateway and then log on again through a CQG M product, your initial logon is disconnected.

To log on

1.  Click the Logon button on the trading application toolbar to display the Order Routing Logon window.

2.  Enter your User ID and Password.

3.  Click the OK button.

To log off

Click the Logoff button on the toolbar.

Sometimes it is necessary for traders to change their connections to the CQG Gateway. In that case, customer support will assist you using the Connection Preference window (Setup > Connection Preference).

To change your trading logon password

You can easily change your trade routing password after you have logged in to CQG trade routing.

1.  Click the Setup button.

2.  Select Change Password.

3.  Enter your old password.

4.  Enter your new password.

5.  Enter your new password again in the Verify field.

6.  Click the Change button. The window closes, and you receive notification of a successful password change.

 

Note: You can log on and off the system at any time, even if there is no trading application open, by using Ctrl+L and Ctrl+Shift+L on your keyboard.
