However, the market could move while the order is in-flight to the exchange resulting in the order being immediately filled nonetheless.

10/18/2019	Improvements	ADL	In an effort to ensure equitable distribution of system resources on general population (gen-pop) Algo Servers, TT will be enabling resource limits. Specifically, on October 20, TT will begin limiting the number of ADL algos that a user can run on general population Algo Servers as follows. Aurora: 400 Hong Kong: 100 All other co-location facilities: 200 To be clear, this limit will not apply to Algo Servers deployed on TT Reserved instances. In addition, TT order types will not count towards this limit. Attempts to launch algos that breach these limits will be rejected. If you have any questions or are interested in a dedicated Algo Server deployed on a TT Reserved instance, please contact your TT Customer Success representative.
10/18/2019	Improvements	ADL	To ensure equitable distribution of common system resources on non-dedicated Algo Servers, limits on the maximum number of ADL algos that can be run in each data center have been instituted as follows: Aurora: 400 Hong Kong: 100 All other co-location facilities: 200

Admins may begin configuring new sessions, etc. in preparation for the Dress Rehearsal.
10/11/2019	Improvements	Setup App	User Setup has added support on CME for Customer Order Handling Instruction (tag 1031). Administrators can set this value in the Account->Exchange->CME tab or under the Order Tag Defaults tab. This tag is now mandatory in UAT, and will be mandatory in Production on November 17.

10/04/2019	Improvements	FIX Services	Added support for (5) vendor-defined fields to the FIX XML schema, which are reserved for future use by 3rd-party algo / FIX Out execution destinations. Tags added: 17001: Vendor-defined Field 1 17002: Vendor-defined Field 2 17003: Vendor-defined Field 3 17004: Vendor-defined Field 4 17005: Vendor-defined Field 5 Description: Vendor-defined fields 1-5 for 3rd-party algo / FIX Out connection types. Not supported when routing to/from native TT order connections. Type: String Required: No Used in message type: Execution Report, Cancel/Reject These values are not over-rideable when submitting orders via FIX and can only be set by defining values in order tag defaults for the FIX Out connection type in TTUS. These tags will not be supported for any TT native order connections and will also not be copied onto compliance drop copy messages. Version: v73
10/02/2019	Improvements	Order Entry	The global Preferences > Orders tab now provides a checkbox named "Populate TextTT with algo template name". When set to ON, this preference automatically seeds the TextTT field with the name of the template when a template is used to place a TT Order Type or other algo, This behavior sometimes causes issues with users who have pre-seeded the TextTT field with a value from an order profile. To avoid overwriting TextTT values intended to be set by order tag defaults set in TT User Setup by an administrator, users should uncheck this preference to preserve the admin defined value.
10/02/2019	Improvements	TT Algos	Added a new OMA algo named 'MinVol'. This algo allows users to specify a minimum quantity required at a price level to work the exchange order.
10/01/2019	Fixes	TTSDK	Fixed an issue that caused an exception for fills that have a fill group. (v2.0.0.7)
