Re: Execution report (Filled) for multileg security
Hanno Klein / Deutsche Börse Systems   21 Feb 2011 11:28AM ET


The multileg entity of the TSM order neither has a Symbol (tag 55), nor a Price 
(tag 44). It seems that the message was merely used to string together three 
single leg orders for symbols TOZ0, CLZ0, CLZ1. The ExecutionReport for the 
multileg then shows symbol as "+2CLZ0-1TOZ0+1CLZ1" which is not an instrument 
but a concatentation of the leg symbols joined with the ratios. Without a price 
at the root level of the order (they only have leg level prices) I am not sure 
any value in LastPx can be meaningful. I am also not sure why you get 4 ERs 
instead of a single one which shows the leg executions in <InstrmntLegExecGrp>. 
If you already get 3 ERs, one for each leg, what value does the 4th one have? I 
am afraid I am unable to help you here.

I might have misunderstood the question as I assumed an aggregated book and was 
referring to price levels. With individual orders, I just send them out and let 
the recipient figure out the book (order priority given by their relative 
position in the data stream), possibly using cloaking mechanisms to reduce the 
probability of identifying reserve orders, hidden orders etc.

Re: Usage of MDEntries in Depth maintenance
Hanno Klein / Deutsche Börse Systems   21 Feb 2011 7:51AM ET


The incremental instructions within a single MDIncGrp should not be applied in 
parallel but sequentially, i.e. you only need to make sure that the deletion of 
row 3 comes first, followed by the add for row 5. Row 5 is empty after the 
first instruction, i.e. it is not an update.

Hanno Klein / Deutsche Börse Systems   18 Feb 2011 12:19PM ET


Not sure I fully understand your scenario. A multileg order is similar to a 
single leg order, only with a more complex object that is being traded and 
which has to be pulled apart into its pieces (legs) to be able to clear and 
settle it. With this analogy, I wonder how you can match your two orders other 
than on the fact that they have the same price (one seller, one buyer) and same 
quantity (buyer or seller might not be completely filled if desired quantities 
are different). Zero is a valid value for a spread but it sounds as if you 
would like to always set LastPx to zero which I would not understand.

We modified the metadata between versions to improve quality and usability of 
the metadata. Not 100% sure we are yet providing enough information to use the 
XSD as your tool for translation. The FIX Repository might be a better place to 
start. 
Re: FIXML namespaces
Jim Northey / The LaSalle Technology Group   18 Feb 2011 8:24AM ET
Most users of FIXML in the post trade space do not include the namespace in 
their messaging applications and do not do run time schema validation.

I have thus far managed to get a UDF defined in a repeating group. But every 
time a Message is generated out of it, the UDFs of all repeating groups are 
pushed at the end of the last repeating group.

Re: Execution report (Filled) for multileg security
Helga Mann / anonymous   18 Feb 2011 4:58AM ET


Thanks for your replay. Just to precise. The price for multileg security is 
applicable only if legs are from the same product, otherwise it shouldn't be 
specified at all. I have two TSM-order matched, each with tree legs. Would in 
this case zero be a valid value for LastPx(31) and AvgPx(6) as well?

Re: Compiling use cases / test cases for HFT
John Harris / BondMart Technologies, Inc.   17 Feb 2011 2:17PM ET


Trading is one phase or activity in portfolio or market-position management. 
Imagine that a trader has reached a satisfied state. He takes in new 
information. This information unsettles him. He evaluates whether he should 
act. He decides to act. He submits an order. He receives order-state 
information. If executed, he settles his obligation and returns, however 
briefly, to a satisfied state. Repeat process. 
Re: Execution report (Filled) for multileg security
Hanno Klein / Deutsche Börse Systems   17 Feb 2011 11:47AM ET


The multileg security has a price and a quantity of its own in addition to the 
quantities and prices of its legs which might be calculated based on ratios. A 
multileg with two legs representing different expirations might have a price of 
-1 (aka spread price) and leg prices of 101 and 102. Trade data for each leg is 
no in <InstrumentLeg> which mereley identifies a leg but are in the other 
fields of <InstrmtLegExecGrp>, specifically LegLastPx and LegLastQty.

Ok, so having UDFs in repeating groups is definitely a possibility. I was 
beginning to question the very possibility of adding Custom tags to Repeating 
groups.
