Trade Summary Message Structure

Leveraging the Order Detail information provides a more granular view into trade events, access to fill information, and supports Time and Sales and charting applications. Each Order Detail repeating group can be rationalized to the corresponding summary level entry; details on how to process the information are included below.

The Trade Summary message uses two key structures to report match events:

• Summary Level repeating groups - contain consolidated trade information by instrument and price.
  • All trades with a single aggressing order are reported together in a single event.

  • Tag 346-NumberOfOrders in each Summary Level entry indicates the number of repeating groups in the associated Order Detail.

  
  
• Order Detail repeating groups - each group is associated with a single Summary Level, and contains detailed order participation information.
  
  

Client systems may process Trade Summary Messages at the Summary Level if only top-level information – price, quantity, number of participating orders and instrument - are required.

Trade Summary Message Processing

The following guidelines will assist client system developers in determining how to process the Order Detail repeating groups.

Trades with a Defined Aggressor

...

• When an aggressing customer order trades against implied orders, at least one Summary Level will not have a defined aggressor. 
  • The Summary Level with an undefined aggressor type represents the customer orders that created the executed implied orders. 
    • Order Details are only sent for the customer orders. Any unreported quantity represents the participating implied orders. 
  • Side (buy and/or sell) are not defined.
• Market Open or Re-Open after a Velocity Logic Event
  • For a scheduled Market Open, opening resolution trades are in the first Trade Summary message following a MDP 3.0 - Market Data Security Status message where tag 326-SecurityTradingStatus=15 (New Price Indication).
  • For a Re-Open after a Velocity Logic Event, opening resolution trades are in the first Trade Summary message following a Market Data Security Status message (tag35-MsgType=f) where tag 326-SecurityTradingStatus=21 (Pre-Open).
  • The following are the characteristics for both scheduled Market Opens and Re-Opens following a Velocity Logic Event:
  • • Order Detail entries are non-deterministic
    • Both buys and sells are reported
    • The sum of the Order Detail quantities (all tag 32-LastQty values), divided by 2, will equal tag 271-MDEntrySize. Both sides of the entire trade event are represented.

Additionally, trades that that only involve implied orders are not published in a Trade Summary message, but volume and price statistics are updated real-time.

Examples

Example 1 - Trade with Customer Orders

Example 2 - Trade with Customer and Implied Orders

Example 3 - One Aggressor Trading at Multiple Prices Against Customer and Implied Orders

The following diagram shows how the Trade Summary groups A - R correlate to the Order Level details A-R with tag 346-NumberOfOrders indicating the number of groups for each corresponding Order Level entry.
