Notes

Fidessa Algo FIX Tags

All Fidessa Algo FIX Tags in a range from 7000 to 7999 can be specified as order attributes with the same number. These attributes will be added to a FIX message as is, without any checks and conversions.

Custom text

Custom text can be passed via custom attribute 6058. It will be shipped in Text(58) tag.

Hong Kong Futures Exchange

After hours market

To enter orders that trade in both the main ("T") and after-hours ("T+1") sessions on HKFE, supply the following:

Tag	Description	Value
386	NoTradingSessions	'1'
336	TradingSessionID	'6'

Orders without the above will only trade in the main ("T") trading session.

CME Exchange

SenderSubID(50) — Mandatory for CME exchanges. Any value that identifies who or what sent the order.

Symbology

Exchange ticker notation is used for instruments.

Fidessa requires the exchange MIC code in every order request. If the exchange is not specified in the request, the value from the "Exchange Code" column is used. The default can be overridden via the fidessaExchange custom column.

Only the "Exchange Product Code" security source (SecurityIDSource(22) = 'M') is supported.
