The CME Globex platform may reject a Quote Request message and send a Business Level Reject (tag 35-MsgType=j) message.

...

Customers who wish to request quotes must implement two CME iLink 2 messages from the FIX 4.2 specification:

  • Quote Request (tag 35-MsgType=R) message.

  • Quote Acknowledgment (tag 35-MsgType=b) message which notifies the customer of accept/reject of a Quote Request (tag 35-MsgType=R) message.

    • In the Quote Acknowledgment (tag 35-MsgType=b), the value in tag 131-QuoteReqID is returned with the same tag value from the Quote Request (tag 35-MsgType=R) message.

    • However, tag 9770-ExchangeQuoteReqID in the Quote Acknowledgment (tag 35-MsgType=b) contains the value broadcast to the market from tag 131-QuoteReqID in the Quote Request (tag 35-MsgType=R) message.

Info

Customers who wish to receive RFQs must be able to process the market data Request for Quote (tag 35-MsgType=R) message.

The following table highlights the iLink Quote Request and MDP messages.
