TT supports the CME Globex Self Match Prevention (SMP) functionality. SMP is optional and allows an executing firm to prevent the matching of orders with common ownership if both the buy and sell orders contain a Self Match Prevention Identifier (SMP ID) and Executing Firm ID. The SMP IDs are user-defined and need to be registered at the exchange and configured for each selected user on a per firm basis using the Setup application.
The TT® platform provides connectivity to the exchange, so you do not have to contact the exchange regarding connectivity options. Refer to TT Access for more details about your connectivity options for connecting to TT.
