FIX Integration

FX - FIX 4.2 Specification

Order Types

OneChronos supports limit and pegged order types.

All Messages

General Notes

To ensure correctness and an easy interop OneChronos uses a FIX engine and order management system programmatically generated from a formal specification. The specification is written in Imandra Protocol Language (IPL). Excerpts of the model that pertain to field and message validation are included in this documentation.

TestRequest messages are used to explicitly request a Heartbeat from the counterparty when none is received. Applications should send a TestRequest whenever the agreed upon heartbeat interval plus one second (HeartBtInt+1) has elapsed without the receipt of a message, Heartbeat or otherwise. If a Heartbeat is not received promptly thereafter, the FIX session should be disconnected on the network level without attempting to send another message. Logon and message recovery procedures can proceed thereafter. A TestRequest can be sent by Subscriber to OneChronos, or by OneChronos to Subscriber.

Reject (3)

Reject messages are used by OneChronos to indicate that a message received from Subscriber is invalid on the session level. Whereas business level rejections via ExecutionReport-BusinessReject are typical, Reject messages should not be received outside of FIX certification. Transmitting additional messages without further investigation is not recommended.

  • COMP_ID_PROBLEM: 9
    Either the SenderCompID or TargetCompID is invalid.

    The differential between SendingTime and message receipt by OneChronos is too large.
  • INVALID_MESSAGE_TYPE: 11
    The message specifies a type outside of the OneChronos FIX specification.

Clients should not send any business messages during this one second period. After the synchronization period has elapsed OneChronos will send a Heartbeat to indicate that the waiting period has ended. See the section on Login Procedures for additional information.

TradeBust (UCC)

TradeBust messages are sent to Subscriber to report trade breaks. Only full breaks (cancellations) ExecTransType=CANCEL are supported.
TagNameRequired?Description

Report Specializations

ExecutionReport is used for many purposes, such as conveying the acceptance of an order or communicating fills to Subscriber. The ExecutionReport types sent by OneChronos are enumerated below. The rules that OneChronos uses to compute OrdStatus are strictly compliant with FIX, and outlined as a state transition matrix in the section on Order States.

Order State Transitions

OneChronos uses a subset of the legal FIX order state transitions. When an order is in multiple states at once (e.g. PENDING_CANCEL and PARTIALLY_FILLED) the FIX rules of precedence are used to determine which state is reported in the OrdStatus field of an ExecutionReport.

  • PENDING_CANCEL: 12
    (highest precedence)
  • PENDING_REPLACE: 11
  • FILLED: 8
  • CANCELED: 5
  • PARTIALLY_FILLED: 4
  • NEW: 2
  • REJECTED: 2
  • PENDING_NEW: 2

Note that values are non-consecutive to maintain parity with the FIX 4.2 specification.

The following are legal transitions (from the perspective of OneChronos sending ExecutionReport messages). States that can only transition to themselves and for which no further messages will be sent (with the exception of trade breaks, when configured) are labeled TERMINAL.

  • NEW
    • PARTIALLY_FILLED
    • FILLED
    • EXPIRED
    • CANCELED
    • PENDING_CANCEL
  • PARTIALLY_FILLED
    • PARTIALLY_FILLED
    • FILLED
    • EXPIRED
    • CANCELED
    • PENDING_CANCEL
  • FILLED
    • TERMINAL
  • EXPIRED
    • TERMINAL
  • CANCELED
    • TERMINAL
  • PENDING_CANCEL
    • PENDING_CANCEL
    • FILLED
    • CANCELED
  • REJECTED
    • TERMINAL
  • PENDING_NEW
    • NEW
    • REJECTED

Drop Copy

OneChronos offers two types of FIX drop copy:

  • Order-by-Order: All business level messages (including trade breaks, if configured) are forwarded to the drop copy session
  • Fills Only: Only ExecutionReport-Fill and ExecutionReport-PartialFill messages are forwarded to the drop copy session

Drop copy functionality is configured on the port/session level.

Port Settings

The following parameters can be configured on the FIX port/session level:

Order Entry Port Settings
