00:00:01.300 --> 00:00:05.489
If you have more than one saved connection, the next question is

00:00:05.489 --> 00:00:09.678
which one the app is using. Multiple cards do not mean every

00:00:09.678 --> 00:00:13.867
account has been combined into one shared balance. Each connection has its

00:00:13.867 --> 00:00:18.056
own provider, label, cash information, and configured controls. Start by finding the

00:00:18.056 --> 00:00:20.500
card marked Default Live account on desktop.

00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:25.055
On mobile, the card identifies the Default Live connection and may show

00:00:25.055 --> 00:00:29.110
an Active badge. In this location, Active identifies that default connection. It

00:00:29.110 --> 00:00:33.166
is not the same as saying a trading strategy is running. Read

00:00:33.166 --> 00:00:37.221
the badge in its own section, just as you learned to separate

00:00:37.221 --> 00:00:40.600
the dashboard's update connection from Paper or Live trading mode.

00:00:41.100 --> 00:00:45.166
On desktop, a different validated connection can offer Use for Live trading.

00:00:45.166 --> 00:00:49.232
If a provider is limited to account viewing in a particular environment,

00:00:49.232 --> 00:00:53.298
the label can instead say Use for Live account view. Read the

00:00:53.298 --> 00:00:57.364
actual button and any limitation. Do not press it simply to explore

00:00:57.364 --> 00:01:00.075
what happens; it changes the selected account context.

00:01:00.575 --> 00:01:04.340
After an intentional selection, look for the default marker on the intended

00:01:04.340 --> 00:01:08.104
card and the result message. The current app explains that portfolio and

00:01:08.104 --> 00:01:11.869
reporting will use that exchange context. Then return to the relevant view

00:01:11.869 --> 00:01:15.633
and read the account and mode labels again. Do not assume a

00:01:15.633 --> 00:01:19.398
familiar-looking screen must still refer to the account you were viewing a

00:01:19.398 --> 00:01:20.025
moment ago.

00:01:20.525 --> 00:01:24.667
Consider two illustrative connections named Main account and Second account. If the

00:01:24.667 --> 00:01:28.809
first reports five hundred dollars and the second reports three hundred, switching

00:01:28.809 --> 00:01:32.951
to the second does not transfer the first account's cash. It also

00:01:32.951 --> 00:01:37.093
does not create an eight-hundred-dollar trading balance. You changed which connection is

00:01:37.093 --> 00:01:40.200
selected, not the ownership or location of the money.

00:01:40.700 --> 00:01:44.640
A connection selection is also different from the Paper and Live switch.

00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:48.580
It is different from enabling or pausing automation, and different from canceling

00:01:48.580 --> 00:01:52.520
an order or closing a position. If you have ongoing activity, understand

00:01:52.520 --> 00:01:56.460
that activity and its account before making a connection change. Do not

00:01:56.460 --> 00:02:00.400
use switching as a shortcut for ending something you intended to stop.

00:02:00.900 --> 00:02:04.727
The current mobile connection list shows the default identity but does not

00:02:04.727 --> 00:02:08.555
offer the same desktop default-selection button. Use the desktop account-selection workflow when

00:02:08.555 --> 00:02:12.382
that change is needed. You can still complete this lesson on a

00:02:12.382 --> 00:02:16.210
phone by identifying the default and explaining what switching would mean. A

00:02:16.210 --> 00:02:20.037
missing control is not an invitation to delete a connection to force

00:02:20.037 --> 00:02:20.675
a switch.

00:02:21.175 --> 00:02:25.631
For your check, identify the default connection without sharing its private details.

00:02:25.631 --> 00:02:30.086
Explain which views will need a fresh context check after an intentional

00:02:30.086 --> 00:02:34.542
change. Then explain why selecting another account does not combine balances, transfer

00:02:34.542 --> 00:02:38.997
assets, or certify that trading stopped. Keeping those boundaries clear is more

00:02:38.997 --> 00:02:41.225
useful than making a practice switch.
