Quant Analytics provides greater insight into your trading performance so you can improve your results with every trade. Using real-time, historical and end-of-day data, the platform gives you a clear picture of FX trading.

The EBS Analytics API streams trade information, market impact and alpha calculations on a trade-by-trade basis to clients. Using benchmark data taken from the entire EBS ecosystem, the Quant Analytics platform provides insights that allow clients to analyze trade flows, optimize execution efficiencies and benchmark their performance against the EBS community, including statistics on averages for like trades.

This topic represents a FIX 4.4 compliant specification for integration with the Quant Analytics system. Some tags are borrowed from FIX 5.0SP2.

Analytic Timings

T+5 analytics are provided between 5.5 and 10.5 minutes after the trade takes place. This is approximate because trades are processed in batches which can affect timing. More accurate calculations are performed by 6am GMT on a daily basis and at this time the analytics will include metrics not available at T+5 minutes.

Connectivity

Connectivity will be available by SSL over Internet at launch; other connectivity methods may be introduced at a later date.

Concurrent Subscriptions

To safeguard systems, by default 10 concurrent subscriptions are allowed, attempts to stream more than this will be rejected.

System Schedule

EBS Analytics FIX Servers are available from 7pm on Sunday until 8am on Saturday (GMT).

The ideal configuration is for clients to connect on a weekly basis. This will ensure there is no interruption to a client's T+5 minutes feed.

Time	Action
19:00 Sunday	Start FIX session.
00:00 Mon-Fri	System rollover, FIX session will remain connected but historical data for the previous calendar day is not available at this point.
06:00 Mon-Fri	Latest time T+1 day calculations are published.
08:00 Saturday	Stop FIX session, reset sequence numbers.

Historical Data and Recovery

At launch it is possible to request historical data going back to midnight GMT:

On the current calendar day for T+5 mins analytics.
On the previous calendar day for T+1 day analytics.

This applies to both snapshot and snaphot+update requests.

Any T+5 min data missing prior to midnight will be restored by 6am GMT when T+1 day analytics are produced at the latest. If further historical data is required then it is possible to use the web dashboard to extract data in CSV format.

Session Management

Clients initiate FIX sessions with the EBS FIX engine which is the acceptor. Most clients will only need a single session, but if you are both an Liquidity Consumer (LC) and an Liquidity Provider (LP) then you will require separate sessions.

Logon (35=A)

A single SenderCompID/TargetCompID may have only one active FIX connection at a time. If a duplicate Logon request for the same SenderCompID/TargetCompID is received while a FIX connection is active, there will be no response to the new Logon request.

Tag	Field Name	Req	Ver	Comments
98	EncryptMethod	Y	4.4	Always '0' = None
108	HeartBtInt	Y	4.4	Heartbeat interval in seconds. Must be > zero.
141	ResetSeqNumFlag	Y	4.4	Should be set to 'Y' as persistence is not supported.
553	Username	Y	4.4	User name assigned by EBS to a user.

Logons without 141=Y will be rejected with a Logout (35=5) message.

Failed Logon Attempts

If a client Logon request has passed network layer authentication and initial message validation, but the Logon request cannot be completed for any reason, EBS will reply with a Logout message indicating the reason for the Logon failure in the Text field. The Logon request must include a valid SenderCompID/valid TargetCompID combination. After sending the Logout message, EBS will immediately terminate the network connection.

Connection attempts which do not pass network layer authentication will not be responded to. Similarly, malformed Logon messages (missing required field, invalid data type, invalid header or trailer) will be ignored.

Clients are cautioned not to repeatedly attempt to log on following an unsuccessful log on attempt. Client applications should wait a configurable time interval before re-attempting a successive logon. Logon attempts more frequent than the EBS provided configured maximum logon frequency will not be responded to.

Heartbeat (35=0)

Tag	Field Name	Req	Ver	Comments
112	TestReqID	N	4.4	Included when the Heartbeat is in response to a Test Request message. Echoes back the TestReqID of the Test Request message.

Test Request (35=1)

Sent to request a Heartbeat from the other side. FIX protocol recommends using the current timestamp as the TestReqID.

Tag	Field Name	Req	Ver	Comments
112	TestReqID	Y	4.4	Unique identifier of the Test Request message to be echoed on the Heartbeat message sent in response to the Test Request message. The FIX protocol recommends using the current timestamp.

Resend Request (35=2)

A Resend Request message may be sent by either party to request retransmission of missed sequence numbers.

Last sequence number requested to be resent.

To request retransmission of a single message, set BeginSeqNo = EndSeqNo.
To request all messages subsequent to a particular message, set EndSeqNo = "0" (representing infinity).

Sequence Reset (35=4)

Tag	Field Name	Req	Ver	Comments
123	GapFillFlag	N	4.4	"Y" indicates that the Sequence Reset message is replacing administrative or application messages which will not be resent. "N" indicates that the Sequence Reset message is being sent in a scenario where the sender has experienced an unrecoverable loss of state.
36	NewSeqNo	Y	4.4	Contains the sequence number of the next message which will be transmitted by the sender.

Session Level Reject (35=3)

A generic message which can be used by either side to reject a FIX message which fails session-level validation. It contains fields to indicate the FIX MsgType and FIX tag of the invalid data.

If a message contains multiple session-level rule violations which would cause rejection, only the first detected error will be indicated in the Reject message. To avoid rejection loops, errors in a Reject message should not themselves be rejected.

A Session Level Reject message is not sent when a FIX message cannot be decoded or fails CheckSum or BodyLength validations. In this case, it must be assumed that the communication channel has become corrupted. The recipient of the malformed message will send a Logout message with reason code indicating "Malformed message received" and will then terminate the session without waiting for a Logout Ack.

Tag	Field Name	Req	Ver	Comments
45	RefSeqNum	Y	4.4	FIX sequence number of the rejected message.
372	RefMsgType	N	4.4	Message type of the rejected message.
371	RefTagID	N	4.4	The FIX tag number of the offending field. (Only the first tag number with an error will be provided.)
373	SessionRejectReason	N	4.4	Code to identify reason for the Session Level Reject message.
58	Text	N	4.4	Free-form text message to explain the reason for the rejection.

Logout (35=5)

The Logout message may be sent by either party to initiate proper, controlled shutdown, or to indicate that an unrecoverable connectivity error has occurred. A good practice is to issue a TestRequest and receive the corresponding heartbeat before Logout.

Logout may occur due to receipt of a malformed message, a heartbeat timeout, or a scheduled shutdown period. To assist with troubleshooting, a Logout reason should be provided on each Logout via the free-form Text field. After sending the Logout Request, the logout initiator should not send any additional messages other than responding to an incoming ResendRequest.

When one side receives a Logout request from the other, it should flush any queued messages and then respond with the Logout message. This indicates to the other side that it will not receive any more messages from the other and that it can close its connection. A configurable timeout will be implemented so that if a Logout response is not received after that time, EBS will unilaterally close the connection.

Trade Capture Report Flows

EBS will configure the client session for either LC or LP data as appropriate. Clients can stream both T+5 mins and T+1 day analytics and make snapshot requests to recover data where needed.

Streaming 2 Ticket Flow

As and when data is available T+5 fills are sent out with 150=F and approximate analytics.

During the end of day calculation process:

Fills are sent out with 150=D to indicate this is an update to an existing fill the client has and that these are the final analytics.
Misses/Rejects are sent out with 150=4 indicating this is a miss/reject and that these are the final analytics.

Historical Catchup

Historical data can be queried going back to midnight GMT for the current calendar day for T+5 min analytics and up until midnight GMT for the previous calendar day for T+1 day analytics.

Time ranges specified on TradeCaptureReportRequests relate to the time the transaction took place (as opposed to the time the analytics were generated). Therefore, for T+1 analytics, it is necessary to query the previous calendar day to obtain the analytics that the client would have received during the current calendar day.

When requesting a snapshot + updates (263=1) subscription, the ordering of updates is not guaranteed; therefore, it is possible the client may receive some real-time updates prior to the completion of transmission of historical data.

It is also important to note that in the event a historical subscription is established in close proximity to the EOD calculation process at 6am GMT, it is possible that the client may receive a TCR with final analytics (150=D) prior to the TCR with the approximate analytics (150=F) message in the case of fills.

Clients should ensure that when they receive historical data (indicated by 570=Y) that it is only processed if the client has not already received final analytics (indicated by 150=D) for the same TradeID(1003). TCRs received with 150=F can be discarded if the client has already received a TCR for the same tradeid with 150=D.

Snapshot 2 Ticket Flow

A time range is specified in the request. All available data within that time range (and matching any criteria specified if applicable) is sent to the client.

Snapshot 1 Ticket Flow

A time range and an ExecPriceType(484) is specified in the request, this allows the client to request only T+5 min or T+1 day analytics if the client only wishes to receive one or the other.

The below requests T+1 day analytics only:

The table table outlines the currently supported EBS Analytic Names (sent in tag 30013). The absence of an EBSAnalyticName on a message indicates that the value of that analytic is null and therefore could not be sent.

EBS may add additional analytics in the future. Therefore, clients should ensure that they are able to process messages with unknown analytics, ignoring any additional information that the client does not wish to consume.

- At T+5 minutes from midnight GMT to the time of the trade; e.g. if the trade was at 10am GMT on 21^st November 2019 then the 1d would be calculated from 2019.11.21 00:00:00 to 2019.11.21 10:00:00.
- At T+1 day for the full 24 hours GMT for the GMT calendar day the trade took place in; e.g. if the trade took place at 10am on 21^st November 2019 then the T+1 day analytics the client receives tomorrow would have the 1d calculated from 2019.11.21 00:00:00 to 2019.11.21 23:59:59 GMT.
7d (e.g. Shared7d) are for the previous 7 days GMT. E.g. if the trade time was 10am GMT on 21^st November 2019 then the 7d would be calculated from 2019.11.14 00:00:00 to 2019.11.20 23:59:59.

Example Vanilla Snapshot TradeCaptureReportRequest (Trade Date)

Historical request to send all analytics from today. Only the trade date is specified (no TransactTime is specified). No other criteria are specified so all permissioned analytics for this trade date will be sent.

8=FIX.4.4 9=122 35=AD 34=23 49=CLIENT 52=20190501-10:05:03.993 56=EBS-TCA-UAT 568=REQ2 569=1 263=0 580=2 75=20190501 75=20190501 10=078

Example Vanilla Snapshot TradeCaptureReportRequest (Trade Date) for T+1 day only

Historical request to send all analytics from today. Only the trade date is specified (no TransactTime is specified). No other criteria are specified so all permissioned analytics for this trade date will be sent.

8=FIX.4.4 9=122 35=AD 34=23 49=CLIENT 52=20190501-10:05:03.993 56=EBS-TCA-UAT 568=REQ2 569=1 263=0 484=x 580=2 75=20190430 75=20190501 10=078

Example Vanilla Snapshot TradeCaptureReportRequest (Transact Time)

Historical request to send all analytics for a specific time range. In this example from midnight until 8am GMT. No other criteria are specified so all permissioned analytics for this trade date will be sent.

8=FIX.4.4 9=172 35=AD 34=26 49=CLIENT 52=20190501-10:06:32.739 56=EBS-TCA-UAT 568=REQ3 569=1 263=0 580=2 75=20190501 60=20190501 -00:00:00.000 75=20190501
60=20190501-08:00:00.000 10=202

Example Streaming TradeCaptureReportRequest filtering on a Floorcode (Party Role)

Request to stream analytics in real-time indefinitely until the session is either logged out or an unsubscribe request is sent. A Floorcode has been supplied in the Party Roles group so only analytics for this floor code will be streamed:
