> Hi @Alexander , I have noticed sometimes even though I might renew the access token, I still get disconnected from an existing socket connection. What is the best practice for when to renew? should I reconnect anytime my token expires? Tue, 28 Dec 2021 10:54:50 -0800 - Any - Renewed Access token. Now expiring at 28-Dec-2021 12:14:47 Tue, 28 Dec 2021 11:09:07 -0800 - Trading - Received closing frame Some( CloseFrame { code: Normal, reason: "Bye", }, )
