⚠ This stores a secret
It is encrypted before it reaches the database and never
appears in a response or a log. It is still worth knowing: issue a key with trading and withdrawal disabled, and revoke it at the venue if you ever stop using this.
The credential is checked against the venue before it is
stored. If it turns out to allow trading or withdrawal, the connection is
refused and nothing is saved.

Limits worth knowing
- No third-party cost and no password leaves the client's machine, but they must install an EA and keep the terminal running.
- no stop-amendment history — the moved-stops pattern shows as unavailable
- no funding data
