BBAE FIX 4.2 Interface Specification

FIX Interface Specification

Overview

The BBAE FIX Trading Platform provides institutional users with a high-performance, direct connectivity solution for the management and execution of trades in US Equities and Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs). This interface is strictly dedicated to fulfilling orders for associated investor accounts.

Core Functionality and Scope

The BBAE FIX Trading Platform is an Order Entry and Management System that supports single-leg and restricted multi-leg trading workflows. The primary scope of the platform is to accept, manage, and report the lifecycle of client orders.

Supported Order Management Workflow

The platform provides a complete transaction lifecycle via the following message types:

Message Name

FIX MsgType

Functionality

New Order

D, AB

Submission: Accepts Single-Leg (Equities, Options) and Multi-Leg (Options) orders.

Order Control

F, G, AC

Modification: Accepts requests for Cancel (F) and Cancel/Replace (G/AC).

Execution Reporting

8, 9

Reporting: Provides real-time status changes and execution details (8) and failure acknowledgments (9).

Critical Constraints and Limitations

The following constraints are non-negotiable and apply to the client’s use of the BBAE FIX Trading Platform:

A. Multi-Leg (Strategy) Order Restrictions (MsgType AB and AC)

Multi-Leg orders are severely restricted to ensure system stability and compliance:

  • Leg Count: Must contain exactly two (2) option legs.
  • Time in Force (TIF): Must be submitted as a Day Order (TimeInForce=0). GTC is not supported.
  • Trading Session: Must be submitted to the Core Market (TradingSessionID=C).
  • Iceberg Orders: Not supported; the MaxFloor (111) tag must be omitted.
  • Modification: The underlying strategy structure, security identification, TIF, and session cannot be modified during a Cancel/Replace (AC).

B. Single-Leg Order Constraints (MsgType D and G)

  • Supported Products: Common Stock (CS) and Simple Options (OPT).
  • TIF: Supports Day (0) and GTC (1).
  • Order Types: Supports Market (1), Limit (2), Stop (3), Stop Limit (4), and Market on Close (5).
  • Iceberg Adjustment Rule: When replacing an order (G), the system will automatically set MaxFloor (111) equal to OrderQty (38) if the new quantity is less than 100. The client cannot manually modify MaxFloor.

Execution and Error Reporting

The platform provides definitive feedback on all order activity:

  • Execution Report (8): This is the mandatory response for all state changes, including new orders, fills, and final statuses (Canceled, Filled, Rejected). It uses ExecType (150) and OrdStatus (39) to define the specific event and the order’s resulting state.
  • Order Cancel Reject (9): This message is used exclusively to confirm that a Cancel (F) or Cancel/Replace (G/AC) request failed to process, and the original order remains active and unmodified.

Operational Hours

We accept New Order submissions 24 hours a day, 7 days a week (24/7). Cancel and Cancel/Replace requests are accepted starting at 7:30 AM ET.

Crucial Quantity Constraint

The BBAE FIX platform strictly requires submissions to utilize whole shares only.

  • Order submissions must specify exact, whole share quantities.
  • The platform does not currently support the submission of fractional (partial) shares or orders based on notional dollar amounts. Any order submitted with non-whole share quantities will be rejected.

Trading Specifications

Supported Instruments

We support trading in US Equities, ETFs, and Stock Options. Certain equities are prohibited from trading due to compliance or internal risk reasons. Users must refer to our dedicated Symbol API for the most current list of supported symbols. Please note that this list may be subject to real-time changes.

Supported Order Types and Constraints

The BBAE FIX Trading Platform (FTE) supports a defined set of order types, with specific limitations applied based on the complexity of the trade (Single-Leg vs. Multi-Leg) and the transaction intent (Open vs. Close).

  • Limit Order: Supported for all order scenarios, including Single-Leg, Multi-Leg (strategies), Open, and Close transactions.
  • Market Order: Prohibited for Multi-Leg Open orders. Supported for all other transactions (Single-Leg Open, Single-Leg Close, Multi-Leg Close)
  • Stop Order: Strictly limited to Single-Leg submissions. Multi-Leg Stop Orders are not supported.
  • Stop Limit Order: Strictly limited to Single-Leg submissions. Multi-Leg Stop Orders are not supported.
  • Market On Close: Only supported for Single-Leg submissions. Must be a closing transaction (PositionEffect=C or equivalent). Opening orders are strictly forbidden.

Time In Force

  • Day: Valid only for the current trading day.
  • GTC: Good-Til-Cancelled. Orders are valid for a maximum of 90 days from submission. GTC orders are not allowed for instruments that are permitted to be filled during Pre-Market, Post-Market, or Overnight Market sessions.

Trading Sessions

  • Core Market
  • Pre/Post Market
  • Overnight Market: Not Supported at this time.

Option Strategy Mapping

  • Long Call/Put
  • Naked Put
  • Covered Call/Put: We do not support the creation of Covered strategies via Multi-Leg orders. The system performs the mapping automatically based on your existing equity positions. Naked Call Restriction: Submission of a Sell to Open Call option without sufficient Long Equity positions will result in immediate rejection of the order.
  • Calendar / Diagonal Spreads
  • Vertical Debit / Credit Spreads 
  • Straddles, Rolling Options, and any strategy requiring three or more legs (e.g., Butterflies, Condors) are not supported at this time.

Symbology

Equities Symbology:

Tag 55 (Symbol) and 65 (SymbolSfx) must be populated with the instrument being traded, which is identified by its common ticker symbol.

FIX Session Protocol

This section details the subset of the FIX 4.2 Protocol used by the BBAE FIX Trading Platform. The FIX Session Protocol is responsible for maintaining reliable, ordered transport of all application-level messages between the Client and BBAE. Here is the Session Message Descriptions:

MsgType (Tag35)

Name

Description

0

Heartbeat

An “I am alive” message sent when there’s been no message for HeartBtInt(30) seconds.

1

Test Request

A “please respond” message sent when data has not been received for HeartBtInt (30) seconds.

2

Resend Request

Perform the Resend processing first, followed by a ResendRequest of your own in order to fill the incoming messaging gap.

3

Reject

An indication that an application level message is associated with a serious error.

4

Sequence Reset

A request by the sending application to reset the incoming sequence number on the receiving side.

5

Logout

If a message gap was detected, issue a ResendRequest to retrieve all missing messages followed by a Logout message which serves as a confirmation of the logout request. DO NOT terminate the session.

The initiator of the Logout sequence has responsibility to terminate the session. This allows the Logout initiator to respond to any ResendRequest message.If this side was the initiator of the Logout sequence, then this is a Logout confirmation and the session should be immediately terminated upon receipt. The only exception to the “do not terminate the session” rule is for an invalid Logon attempt. The session acceptor has the right to send a Logout message and terminate the session immediately. This minimizes the threat of unauthorized connection attempts.

A

Logon

Must always be the first message transmitted. Authenticate and accept the connection. After sending a Logon confirmation back, send a ResendRequest if a message gap was detected in the Logon sequence number.

Message Header and Trailer Requirements

The following standard FIX tags must be present in every message transmitted between the Client and BBAE.

Order Single Cancel/Replace Request

The Order Cancel/Replace Request is used to modify unexecuted attributes of a previously submitted Single-Leg order (Equities, ETFs, or Options). This message utilizes MsgType 35=G.

Core Principle: Any field intended for modification (e.g., Price, Quantity) must be explicitly provided with the new value. Fields that are omitted will carry over the value from the original order.

Security-identifying tags (e.g., Symbol, MaturityMonthYear, PutOrCall, SecurityType) cannot be modified during a cancel/replace operation. If any of these tags are included in the request, they must exactly match the values of the original order; otherwise, the request will be rejected.

Execution Report

The Execution Report (MsgType 35=8) is the primary response message sent from the BBAE FIX Trading Platform to the Client. It is used to confirm various events, including the initial receipt of an order, status changes, partial fills, full fills, and rejections.

Execution Reporting Principle: Every order and order modification request will trigger at least one Execution Report. The combination of ExecType (Tag 150) and OrdStatus (Tag 39) defines the state of the order.
