FIX Order Router, v219 introduces support for submission of Strategy Creation (35=c) and RFQ (35=R) request messages via the order routing session.

The SecDef Request (35=c) defines a specific Security to be traded at the exchange. The request security can be defined as a multileg security made up of one or more instrument legs.

If the security already exists in PDS (based on normal lookup rules), respond w/ a 35=d message for the instrument. If not, FIX OR forwards the request to the appropriate native Order Connecctor and waits for a response.

The SecDef request (c) message definition has added a number of tags to match the Instrument and InstrumentLeg components as defined on the SecDef (d) message. These new tags are valid for use in submission of request messages to FIX OR sessions only.
-------------------------
The RequestForQuote (35=R) message is used to request quotes from market makers / brokers in the marketplace prior to placement of an order. This workflow is most commonly used for multileg strategies where there is insufficient liquidity in the CLOB to get the best price for the instrument trade.

If the RFQ request is unsuccessful for any reason, a MassQuoteAck (35=b) is sent on the FIX OR session with QuoteReqID set in tag 131 and QuoteRejectReason set in tag 300. Successful RFQs are acked by a 35=b with QuoteAckStatus = 0, “OK”, in tag 16859.

Quote response messages from the marketplace (also 35=R) are distributed over the FIX market data feed as well as to TTW and API clients. No quote responses are sent over the FIX OR session.

The new tags added to the (R) message are valid for use in submission of request messages to FIX OR sessions only. FIX Market Data sessions that subscribe for (R) messages are not impacted by the schema change.
