What does 11 Malformed HMAC signature mean on the DXtrade API?
DXtrade errorCode 11, description "Malformed HMAC signature" (the vendor's wording). HMAC authentication failed because the HMAC signature header is malformed. The vendor says any API resource can return it.
Risk warning: CFDs and spread bets are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. You can lose money on these products, and each provider publishes its own loss figure under FCA rules. You should consider whether you understand how they work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. Automated and API trading can amplify losses through bugs, connectivity failures and runaway orders.
How do I fix 11 Malformed HMAC signature?
Rebuild the signature header as the HMAC authentication section of the vendor's page describes.
