SenderCompID and Order Submission

SenderCompID is a CME Group assigned identifier comprising a Session ID, Firm ID, and Fault Tolerance Indicator (FTI). SenderCompID is submitted in tag 49-SenderCompID in the Standard Header - Client System to CME Globex, and returned in tag 56-TargetCompID in the iLink 2 Standard Header - CME Globex to Client System.

titleSenderCompID

The SenderCompID value is constructed as follows:

  • 3-byte Session ID +

  • 3-byte Firm ID +

  • 1-byte Fault Tolerance Indicator (FTI)

Example: ABC123N
Session ID = ABC
Firm ID = 999
FTI = N (no fault tolerance)

...

The following example demonstrates how firm 999 can submit orders for:

  • itself (firm 999)

  • another clearing member firm (e.g. firm 998)

  • for a non-clearing member firm client
