What does 2100 (account data unsubscribed) mean on the Interactive Brokers API?
Interactive Brokers lists TWS API warning message code 2100 with the text "New account data requested from TWS. API client has been unsubscribed from account data." (the vendor's wording). TWS allows one reqAccountUpdates subscription at a time. A request for a second account made without cancelling the first replaces it, and TWS sends this message to say so.
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 2100 (account data unsubscribed)?
Cancel the existing account updates subscription before subscribing to another account, or expect the new request to replace the old one.
