(Ref 168158)

This change is due to CME specific exchange behavior, and the WrkQty field is editable on native Icebergs on other exchanges. (Ref 165872)

07/17/2024	08/13/2024	Improvements	Orders	We have enhanced our current OMS spread stitching functionality to automatically create a remainder "tail" order when the spread leg quantities do not exactly match. Currently, the constituent orders must have the same order quantities in order to stitch them into an exchange listed spread, oftentimes requiring multiple steps for the user to split one of the care orders manually, and adjust the quantity of the split order to match the quantity of the order to be stitched with. Now, our auto-stitch with tail feature will allow any excess quantity to be traded separately as an outright once the stitch is created. (Ref 165862)
07/17/2024	08/13/2024	Improvements	Order Book	The Order Book now provides a new "Edit order..." right-click context menu on working order rows. This menu item launches a floating order ticket with a single green "Change" button. This feature can be invoked on multiple orders, allowing you to queue up edits for several orders and then individually submit them when desired. (Ref 161005)
07/15/2024	07/15/2024	Plan	Order Entry	IMPORTANT NOTE: Beginning July 22, 2024, TT will adopt the SAIL B4 version. Customers must log in to the MX Axis portal and begin linking all session IDs to the SAIL B4 version starting today end of the trading session and have until July 21, 2024, to complete this task. Failure to do so will result in the order entry session login being denied by the exchange on July 22. On the MX Axis portal https://www.tmx.com/axis/login/ link the session ID to 'Order Connector v255 - B4'. This upgrade introduces new fields for regulatory compliance. While MX does not require these fields to be populated until March 31, 2024, if they are filled in, TT will send them to MX. 1. Short Code, 2. UniqueID, 3. Sponsored Access Flag, 4. Algo Trading Flag. These fields will be configurable on TT User Setup on Accounts. Please use the corresponding TT fields to set the compliance fields. 1. Unique ID: <Investment Decision ID>, 2. Sponsored Access Flag: <Direct Electronic Access (DEA)>, 3. Client Short Code: <Client ID>, 4. Algo Trading Flag: <Investment Decision Qualifier>. FIX clients can override all these fields with the following tags, 1. Investment Decision ID (tag 448), 2. Investment Decision Qualifier (tag 2376), 3. Client ID (tag 448), and 4.

07/13/2024	07/13/2024	Improvements	Orders	Support of iLink 3.0 for the TT CME Convenience Gateway has now been deployed for customer use. In the same way as the MSGW iLink3 upgrade of 2019, this new Convenience Gateway version supports the CME “On Demand” order entry method only. Please note that existing CGW Connections will not work as-is. In order to use the CME upgrade, New Connections must be created (A) using a Session ID that was created by CME specifically for iLink3, and (B) using Type = “Convenience Gateway iLink3” in TT Setup. Aside from the changes to Connections, the order routing functionality of TT CGW iLink3 is identical to TT MSGW iLink3. All existing FIX configurations, Order Tag Defaults, etc. will continue to function as expected. (Ref 166181)
07/05/2024	07/15/2024	Fixes	Options Chain	For the following options , TT was referring to the wrong underlying instrument . This has been fixed now OGBS OGBM OGBL OGBX OOAT OBTP This has now been corrected per the Eurex page https://www.eurex.com/ex-en/markets/int/fix-opt/government-bonds/Options-on-Euro-Schatz-Futures-137264 Each of these option product has expiry on calendar months and quarterly months . Quarterly months here are Mar , Jun , Sep and Dec ; while the calendar months are the subsequent months till the next Quarterly month . For e.g. , in Apr , the calendar months will be Apr , May and Jun , and quarterly months will be Sep , Dec and Mar . The future underlying for calendar months should be the upcoming quarter month , while the future underlying for quarterly months should be the same quarter . (Ref 166255)
07/05/2024	07/08/2024	Fixes	Exchanges	All the EEX Instruments ( Spot and Derivatives ) were assigned the Derivative exchange in PDS . Due to this , just by subscribing for EEX Derivative instruments in TTUS , users could view both EEX SPOT and derivative products . This has now been corrected . If users want to view EEX SPOT products on TTW , they need to subscribe to EEX SPOT products in TTUS . (Ref 165665)
07/01/2024		Fixes	Exchanges	LME does not provide Floor Closing Prices for all contracts. Where missing, TT will now calculate these values based upon the LME\'s rules, and populate these values in the "Settle" field. (Ref 169131)
