‍Will TradersPost Notify Users When a Broker Needs to Be Reconnected?

A feature request has been made for TradersPost to notify users when their broker account needs to be reconnected. Currently, there is no automatic notification system in place for expired session tokens or disconnected broker accounts.

TradersPost is aware of this issue and has been internally discussing improvements. The platform is considering adding email notifications to alert users when a broker connection expires and requires reconnection.

Why This Feature Is Important

• Prevents missed trades due to unexpected broker disconnections.

• Helps traders quickly resolve authentication issues.

• Reduces downtime in automated trading strategies.

Future Implementation Plans

While there is no set timeline for release, TradersPost has acknowledged the request and is looking into prioritizing it. The likely solution will involve automated email notifications when a broker session expires, ensuring users can take immediate action.

Conclusion

TradersPost does not currently notify users when a broker connection needs to be refreshed, but this feature is under consideration. An email alert system may be introduced in the future to improve trade reliability and prevent disruptions.
