What happens if I change the Bridge Key while there are active orders running in the Custom Bridge?

I have some positions already running through a Custom Bridge, and the same webhook is also being used in my TradingView alerts.

Suppose I change the Bridge Key while those positions are still active. What will happen in that case?

Will it affect the existing positions or only the future signals coming from TradingView?

    Yes sir, this is a valid question and can be a little confusing.

    Changing the Bridge Key does not affect positions that are already open. Those orders have already been executed and will continue to remain active as usual.

    However, changing the Bridge Key also changes the webhook URL associated with that Custom Bridge.

    So, if your TradingView alerts are still using the old webhook URL, then any new signals generated after changing the Bridge Key will not reach AlgoDelta, and therefore no new orders will be placed.

    In simple terms:

    -Existing open positions will remain unaffected.

    -Pending or future signals sent to the old webhook will fail.

    -You will need to update the new webhook URL wherever the old webhook is being used, such as TradingView, MT5, AmiBroker, or any other external platform.

    For a smooth experience, it is generally recommended to change the Bridge Key only when the bridge is not actively being used for live signal execution.

    • Ok, understand the things clearly. Your suggestion is also right I will remember not change the bridge key while the webhook is being used somewhere. Thanks for your answers. – Radhesh Joshi Jul 3
