Here's How I Got my cTID to finally work!
Hi sprex,
Okay here is what I did to get my cTID to work because I was having much difficulty with getting it to work for me too...LOL!
1. First make sure to go to the main cTDN Home page then click on the Forum Tab --->>> http://www.ctdn.com
2. My problem was that I never signed up for a cTDN Forum account first, so if you need to do that again just go and create a unique account in the cTDN Forum section.
3. After creating your CTDN Forum account with unique username and password, they will send you a verification code to your e-mail address that you use with one of your cTrader Desktop or cTrader Web accounts. Your Forum username and password will be what you enter for your cTID inside of cTrader Web. This is different from your seven digit or eight digit account login and four digit account password!
4. After you complete all of those things open up cTrader Web and first login to one of your accounts. (At this stage make sure to use your seven or eight digit account number and your four digit password for one of your trading accounts).
5. Now, in order to link your cTDN Forum username and cTID to your Trading account click on the Workspaces tab and on the Login Tab clear those two fields. Now enter your same name that you use here at the Forum. So, for you, you should be able to enter "sprex" as your cTrader ID and then enter the same password that you use for this Forum and click Login and it should work! I know it's confusing and the CTrader team needs to make the cTID sign-up easier to understand because it took me forever to figure it out!
6. Now you should see your username "sprex" in the top right corner of cTrader Web. Hover over your username and there you can change the password if you like. I do not know if this works for the cTrader desktop version yet but it does work for cTrader Web.
7. You can link other cTrader accounts if you use different cTrader applications from different brokers and link them all under your same cTDN Forum username "sprex". Just login to your other broker cTrader apps and click Workspaces, then enter your username "sprex" and your Forum password and then when you hover over your username in the top right corner you will see multiple accounts where it says "Linked Accounts".
7. Now you can save your custom Chart Templates and Workspaces and Load them whenever and however you like I guess :)
Here are some pics...
