There are several reasons why a Huobi account can be locked either manually or automatically.

 

A. Exceeding the maximum number of failed login attempts.

Users are given ten(10) attempts to log in. Thereafter your account will be locked automatically for two(2) hours as a security measure to protect your assets.
