How to Manage Multiple Accounts of the Same Exchange

Publication date is

The multi-account feature is designed to facilitate seamless trading across multiple accounts within the same platform.

It enables you to effortlessly monitor your portfolio across various exchange accounts and place orders within a particular account.
Add exchange accounts up to the limit allowed by your subscription plan.

In TabTrader, you can access and manage your account information on two pages: within the list of your accounts and on the instrument page.

If you have multiple accounts from the same exchange connected to TabTrader, switch between them and choose wallets directly on the Instrument page.  

In TabTrader's Portfolio section, you can access the general information about your exchange account, including various wallet types (Spot, Margin, Futures, etc.) with their respective balances, as well as an overview of your orders, trades, and positions.

Adding Multiple Exchange API Accounts

Open TabTrader and navigate to the Portfolio page. 

Select the option to add a new account
In the first two fields, enter the name of your exchange account and choose a distinct color for easy account identification later on.
At last, input the API key details for the selected exchange and press the check button to finish the process.  

Repeat this process for each additional account you wish to integrate. 

Note that it's essential to use two different API keys.

Primary Account and Account Switching

When you add accounts, the first one is automatically the primary account, displaying its balance first on the Instrument page and in the order form page.
To make another account the primary one, you'll need to pin it either on the Portfolio or Instrument page.

How to pin your account

On the Portfolio page, long-press on the name of your desired account to open the context menu. Select "Pin" from the menu.

Your current active account/wallet and the respective balances are highlighted at the top of the page (just below the dashboard).

Switching between accounts and wallets

Note:
Switching between accounts and wallets does not deactivate the primary account. If you reopen the same trading instrument, the pinned account will remain active.
