Hi,

Im completely new to this. I am testing the API so will be making subscriptions to market data and the issuing new orders etc.

I am logged in but I cannot see where I get a test API key etc. Can somebody direct me please?

Also, I dont need to deposition $1000 to use the test keys, do i?

Thanks

Graham
