GTC/GTD Order Elimination

All GTC/GTD orders will be eliminated at the pre-open when the new US Treasury Actives instruments are listed.  

When any GUS/trader access is removed, open GT orders will be persisted until the end of the week.  Firm admins must cancel any open orders to ensure they are removed before the end of the week.

Only Best 

Only Best orders are not GTC/GTD eligible. 

If clients submit Only Best order with GTC/GTD order qualifier, the order will be rejected with the Execution Report=Reject (tag 35-MsgType=8, tag 39-OrdStatus -8) message. The reject message will include reject code (tag 103-OrdRejReason) = 5011 and reject text(tag 58-Text)="ExecInstruction Only Best and TimeInForce GTC or GTD are not eligible/allowed."

Cancel on Disconnect

Cancel On Disconnect (COD) does not include GTC and GTD orders. If involuntary lost connection between iLink users and the CME Globex platform is detected, COD cancels all resting US Treasury Actives orders for the disconnected registered iLink user, except GTC and GTD orders. It is the user's responsibility to reenter all orders that have been cancelled by COD.
