Step 1: Submit your "Machine ID" to Candid Commodities
To authorize users for our indicators, we use a user's "machine ID," or "mac address." Note that this is not the "machine ID" that you can get inside a trading application like dt Pro or NinjaTrader. A machine ID is a unique code on every network card on the planet. To retrieve yours:
- 1. Download this small program on our site. It will display your machine ID.
Get Machine ID
- 2. E-mail that code directly (along with your charting platform name and whether you're 32 or 64 bit) to Candid Commodities at support@candidcommodities.com so that we can authorize your computer. We manually authorize each machine ID, so please allow 24-48 hours. You can also email it to us via the software.
- IF THE PROGRAM DOES NOT DISPLAY YOUR MACHINE ID: The software will not work on certain systems. In this case, please click here to find out how to manually retrieve your machine ID or simply copy and paste the IDs retrieved and email them to support@candidcommodities.com
