Cboe FX Frequently Asked Questions

Market Data

By default, market data connections do not have the following enabled so you must explicitly request that Cboe FX enables them.

  • Visibility for trades for the price session
    • “Ticker Detailed” = LTP/LTQ/Volume
    • “Ticket Basic” = LTP only
  • Visibility of your own orders in the market data

Crossed Markets

Due to the nature of the exchange, crossed markets are possible but usually fleeting.

A crossed market is defined as a bid for a price higher than the best offer, or an offer for a price lower than the best bid.

Time and Sales Delay

The exchange provides data related to Time and Sales with a sixty (60) second delay.

No Open, Close, Settle or Net-Change Data

Cboe FX is a 24-hour exchange and does not utilize open, close, and/or settlement prices. Also, TT users will not see net change (net-chg) information.
