Algo Control


This venue supports both client and venue -initiated suspension and restoration of order execution:

Client-initiated:

  • MultilegCancelReplaceRequest.ExecInst may be set to either:
    • Suspend - temporarily remove the order from the market.
    • Release - return the order to the market for continued execution.

Venue-initiated:

  • Notification of these events will be via ExecutionReport(Restated) messages.

Please refer to the OrderStateTransitionDiagram for details of the order lifecycle.
