cTrader FIX Engine
Rules of Engagement
Version 2.1
May 201

This documentation is not well documented and needs examples for all of the requests/responses supported.

For example few unknowns;
1) How is the "BodyLength" calculated?
2) Is "MsgSeqNum" increased on every request or it is fixed to 1 as indicated in the documentation?
3) Is "CheckSum" always 054 as it is documented on or always 000 as it is in the example?

RE:

I suggest you read the official FIX Protocol documentation at www.fixprotocol.org/

It explains how bodylength, checksum, etc are to be calculated.

Your checksum is dependent on the data packet content. It must be recalculated for each msg sent or the server will return invalid.

MsgSewNum is always updated. If it is out of sequence, you have to reset it.

Read tor official FIX Protocol documentation. It will take some time to get it, but is well worth the extra effort.

And the question: How fix my example ?
