Important: R Protocol API Limitation #

The R Protocol API does not support temporary free demo/trial accounts. If you are attempting to connect using a demo/trial user ID, the connection will not work.

To connect via the R Protocol API, you must use a supported non-trial (live or eligible) account. If needed, verify with the Rithmic team whether your user ID is a demo/trial account before proceeding with further troubleshooting.
