WiFi Icon Turning Red (DISCONNECTED)

When Does This Occur?
The disconnection indicator appears in the following scenarios:- Before market opens - The application shows disconnected status before trading hours begin
- After market closes - The application shows disconnected status after the trading session ends
- Connection problems - Actual connection issues during active trading hours
Market Hours Configuration
ChuchoBot uses configured market hours to determine when the market is operational. Default hours are:General Market Hours
- Market Open: 10:30:00
- Market Close: 17:00:00
- Market Close with Auction: 16:57:00
Immediate Settlement (CI) Market Hours
- CI Open: 10:30:00
- CI Close: 17:00:00
- CI Close with Auction: 16:57:00
These hours determine when ChuchoBot displays the connection status correctly. The red WiFi icon before 10:30 or after 17:00 is normal behavior.
Solution for Connection Issues During Market Hours
If the disconnection occurs while the market is open:- Close ChuchoBot completely
- Relaunch
ChuchoBot.exe - Log in again with your Primary API credentials

ChuchoBot.exe.configfile in a text editor - Locate the
