FIX Services

Recent changes to TT Algo server have introduced a new entry, _original_time_sent, in the 957 repeating group on FIX execution reports for TT SSE or ADL child orders. For example: 957=1| 958=_original_time_sent| 959=19| 960=20191120-07:13:54.264252|. Algo servers with this change are running now in UAT, and will be deployed to production on Nov. 29.

The value of _original_time_sent represents the time the TT order connector sent sent a child order to the exchange and is used internally by the Algo server for enhanced risk checking.

Improvements

FIX Services

FIX Back Office and Order Routing services have added an option to send Exchange Fill Updates as Execution Reports with ExecType of Trade Correction for OM API gateways (HKEX, OSE, SGX & TOCOM) and NDAQ_EU & NFI markets. This two-step reporting of trades is mandated since the named exchanges report only basic price and quantity information on the initial fill message, followed by full clearing information on a later message.

Prior to this change, such updates were *only* sent as Trade Capture Reports and that behavior continues to be the default.

To opt-in to this new feature, a checkbox has been added to the FIX session configuration screen in TTUS, "Send Exchange Fill Updates as Trade Correction Execution Reports", This checkbox is unchecked by default.

When the checkbox is enabled, TCRs will not be sent for this exchange action. The new Execution Report format will include the following fields:
> Tag 150=G, Trade Correct
> Tag 880 - will now have execution number (execution_event_nbr_u on OM API)
> Tag 17 - will have the trade match ID (trade_number_i on OM API)
> Tags 20 and 19 are consistent with prior execution reports for the same trade
> Tag 16612 will contain a new unique_exec_id
