What are the sequence of FIX messages for realtime market data subscription?
01 Mar 2021, 11:31


Could anyone give an example of what sequence of messages should be sent to subscribe for real-time market data?

For example, do I need to log-on first? I know FIX is implemented differently by FIX providers and I have no clue what exact messages cTrader expects.

Hi jiminparky,

You just need to login (MsgType(35)=A) and then subscribe to market data (MsgType(35)=V). Let me know if you have any further questions.

Could you give me two actual FIX request messages for this with the password masked out of course. I find that in the past different FIX providers always implement these differently.

Hi jiminparky,

You can find examples of request messages in our Rules of Engagement. You can also use our sample application to generate such FIX messages.
