Jim T Posted November 9, 2020 Report Share Posted November 9, 2020 Any update on TD Ameritrade resolving the API server problem? I still can't login to TD Ameritrade on MT Trader Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ydfah Posted November 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2020 It's getting a little better for me, I can get information and trade intermittently instead of not at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camperdon Posted November 9, 2020 Report Share Posted November 9, 2020 I'm still stuck on login screen also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted November 9, 2020 Report Share Posted November 9, 2020 Might have a way to get around the issue. 1) select FILE/HELP - Check for updates. 2) Let MT update all files. Then, restart MT even if nothing updated. 3) After restarting when you get the login prompt, CANCEL it. 4) restore the last backup from prior to today (MT makes a backup whenever it starts). To do that, go to FILE / IMPORT… Select BACKUP folder, and then select the most recent backup before the problem started. Please let me know if that worked.

camperdon Posted November 9, 2020 Report Share Posted November 9, 2020 TDA up for me. I didn't try the work around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ydfah Posted November 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2020 Seems to be working again. This seems to me like it happens every time there is a big market play going on. It's like they want to lockout the small investors from playing the big swings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted November 9, 2020 Report Share Posted November 9, 2020 y, should be OK now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim T Posted November 9, 2020 Report Share Posted November 9, 2020 I was just able to log on to TD Ameritrade, so it looks like they fixed the API server problem! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
