  2. Click the exchange list drop down arrow, and scroll to and select an exchange.
  3. Click the Subscriber Market Data, FIX and SDK Market Data, and Order Routing tabs to configure the user for the selected exchange:

    • Use the Order Routing tab to configure exchange credentials for user identification.
  4. Configure the following Order Routing settings:

    • Text A — An optional, user-defined text value that remains on submitted orders and maps to the exchange's account setting. Alpha-numeric and special characters are allowed.
    • Text B — An optional, user-defined text value that remains on submitted orders in the TT system, but is not sent to the exchange. Alpha-numeric and special characters are allowed.
    • Member — The Member value provided by the exchange. This field is currently not used in the TT system and is reserved for future use.

    • Client Can Override — Determines if a user can override the value in this field when submitting orders from trading applications or APIs. Check the check box to unlock the field and allow a user to override the value. When unchecked, the field is locked and the user cannot change it.
  5. Click the Subscriber Market Data tab to allow or deny access to All Market Data available at the exchange.

    If Allow is enabled, click Sessions to set how many simultaneous market data sessions the user can have active using different IP Addresses/Applications. Selecting 0 - Delay Only indicates that the product group is denied in all environments except the delayed environment, which does not have access to real-time market data.

    Note: Any product groups that are disabled have not been authorized for your company. Please contact a Trading Technologies representative to enable them.

    For exchanges that require market data agreements, the following indicators are displayed next to the "Sessions" field:

    • — Indicates the market data agreement has been approved.
    • — Indicates the market data agreement is outstanding or pending approval.

    Tip: Click a market data indicator to open the Agreements tab.
