The RMI supports special characters in Execution Firm accounts. Execution Firms may prefix special characters to the tag 1-Account value to utilize Average Price System (APS), give-up functionality, or other functions. The RMI API enforces block and unblock regardless Exchange-defined of special characters. Special characters not defined by the Exchange must be explicitly included in the RltdPtyDetlID to not be subject to block/unblock enforcement.
Warning
The account validation will always use capitalized values and match the values on the CME Globex orders.
The following table details the Exchange-defined special qualifiers (characters) for the Account. Orders submitted using these characters are subject to RMI instructions. If a block is in place on a given account, new orders using these characters in conjunction with that account number will also be blocked.
