How can I hide a portion of my trading account numbers on the Dom?
When I start streaming live, I need to be able to hide a portion of the account numbers from viewing eyes.

However, I also need to be able to see the account numbers(with a portion of the numbers hidden) in the dropdown list on the DOM as I switch Prop Firm accounts during the day.

There is not a way to hide just a portion of the Account Name nor is there a way to display something different. The only options are to either display it or not display it. Refer to the following:
Global Trade Settings Windows: Display Trade Account on Chart/Trade DOM (Global Settings >> Chart Trade Settings >> General >> Other)

Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Main/C >> Menu >> Settings >> Hide Trade Account List

The one workaround we can think of is to use the Trade Configurations to change the Trade Account. Refer to the following:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Using and Changing Between Different Trade Window and Attached Orders Configurations

For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:

Maybe make a new completely blank chart with the values scale and time scale hidden. Hide the menu and title bar. Draw style set to blank. The idea is to make the chart window an empty box. Set it to "always on top". Now shrink it down to a tiny square & move it so that hides what you want to hide.

Thanks, John. This workaround will be sufficient.
I can name the config file using the example"APEX-PA-0022", save the true trade account number in the config file, and then hide the trade account list.
