  One way to protect your query ID when using interactive brokers for crypto trading is to enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for your account. This adds an extra layer of security by requiring a second verification step, such as a code sent to your mobile device, in addition to your password. By enabling 2FA, even if someone manages to obtain your query ID, they would still need the second factor to gain access to your account. Make sure to choose a strong and unique password for your interactive brokers account as well to further enhance security.

  Another way to protect your query ID is to regularly monitor your account activity and enable email or SMS notifications for any suspicious login attempts or changes to your account settings. This way, you can quickly identify and respond to any unauthorized access or potential security breaches. Additionally, avoid sharing your query ID or any sensitive information related to your interactive brokers account with anyone, and be cautious of phishing attempts or suspicious links that may lead to fraudulent websites.
