Functionality

BRL Split Settlement

Split settlement can be for spot trades only

BRL is deliverable onshore.

Split settlement infers different tenors for each currency in the trade. I agree that if it's split settlement, with the same tenor, then it's not really split settlement at all although we allow the same value date to be applied to both currencies. Maybe I should consider an enhancement to product team that states that a split settlement trade should not have one value date.

It works for selected currency pairs.

I think we provide those for tags also when trades were done under MIFID.. Please refer to our FIX spec.

FXTG (FX Trading Grid)

FXSPOT for SPOT ccy pairs, G10's etc

FXFWD are for pre spot ccy pairs Example EUR/RUB (russian/baltic regional banks) - Only a handful of our dealers are enabled for this. This wouldn't be relevant for you.

FXNDF - Can be traded if supported OFF-FACILITY and ON /SEF / MTF / TFE

SWAPS are not supported at all in FXTG and can be ignored.
