CQG WebAPI 'Username or Password is incorrect'

Hello,

I've received a set of new live CGQ WebAPI credentials from my FCM, Advantage Futures. I've entered the correct login and password information but cannot connect. I just renewed my Level 5 SC service package on Friday night for another 3 months. Wondering if the connection is related to my SC account?

Thank You

As this line shows, the Username or Password is still incorrect:
CQG WebAPI | Market data logon unsuccessful. Server message: Username or password is incorrect. | 2019-12-09 15:05:43.401

This message is from CQG and not something we create on our own.

Check with your broker and ensure that you have the correct credentials.
