This topic provides information about CME Globex messaging controls. Extraordinary and excessive messaging rates generated by a client system can negatively impact all market participants (for example, by creating performance latencies). The CME Globex messaging controls are designed to address this risk by:

The number of active or queued Order Status Requests (OSR) per iLink session is limited to 50. Order Status Requests (OSRs) that exceed the allowed number of active and queued requests will be rejected with a Session Level Reject (tag 35=3) with tag 58=Exceeded maximum number of unacknowledged OSR requests. New OSRs may be submitted as each OSR is fulfilled. CME Group recommends that customers wait for each OSR to be fulfilled before submitting a new request. |

Quote Messaging Thresholds
All mass quote messaging is measured in messages per second (MPS) over a three-second window. If an iLink session exceeds the mass quote threshold, subsequent mass quote messages will be rejected via a Session Level Reject (tag 35-MsgType=3) message until the mass quote MPS rate falls below the threshold. On a best-efforts basis, CME Group will cancel all resting quotes when an iLink sessions exceeds the Mass Quote reject threshold.
Mass Quote Messages:
- Mass Quote (tag 35-MsgType=i)
- Quote Cancel (tag 35-MsgType=Z)
Environment | Message | Reject Threshold | Logout Threshold | Interval |
---|---|---|---|---|
Production | Mass Quote and Quote Cancel Messages
| 400 MPS | 750 MPS | Three-second window
|
New Release | 30 MPS | 70 MPS |
