Can't login for a TRADE session
02 Nov 2021, 22:10

I'm coding a FIX API in C++, I have a connection for QUOTE session and it works but I can't login for a TRADE session.

This is my login message:

8=FIX.4.4|9=126|35=A|49=live.icmarkets.***|56=CSERVER|57=TRADE|34=1|52=20211102-18:59:47.000|98=0|141=Y|108=30|553=***|554=***|10=206|

Then I get this error message.

58=TargetSubID is assigned with the unexpected value 'TRADE', expected 'QUOTE'10=228Login error: TargetSubID is assigned with the unexpected value 'TRADE', expected 'QUOTE'

Error: TargetSubID is assigned with the unexpected value 'TRADE', expected 'QUOTE'

If I remove the 108 field in the login message I get this. What I'm sending:

8=FIX.4.4|9=119|35=A|49=live.icmarkets.***|56=CSERVER|57=TRADE|34=1|52=20211102-19:06:07.000|98=0|141=Y|553=***|554=***|10=139|

What I get:

58=Invalid Logon message: Required tag missing, field=10810=049Login error: Invalid Logon message: Required tag missing, field=108

Error: Invalid Logon message: Required tag missing, field=108

Looking at the FIX API pdf the logon message has a 108 field, what I'm doing wrong?

Hi swapd0,

Can you check if you can reproduce this problem using FIX API Sample? If you can connect using the sample, then compare the messages to find what is different.

Hi,

Field 108 is for heart beat interval and its required, here is a valid logon message that I just tested:

8=FIX.4.4|9=195|35=A|49=demo.ctrader.***|34=1|56=cServer|57=TRADE|50=TRADE|52=20211103-06:04:54.485|98=0|108=30|141=Y|553=***|554=***|10=026|

Are you sure you are connected to Trade end point? please check the host and port, maybe you are using Quotes port instead of Trade port.

I can't test it with FIX API Sample because I have a Mac.

This!

Thanks Amusleh

Although now I have this error. Is weird because I generate the timestamp with the same function and it works for a quote session.

Error: Invalid Logon message: SendingTime accuracy problem, field=52

Edited:

Ok, I'm sending messages with the time 7:15:xxx, the server responds with time 8:15:xx, although I've 9:15:xx on my computer.

Hi,

You can use these samples on Mac: spotware/quickfixnsamples.net: .NET Samples for QuickFIXn library and Spotware FIX API (github.com)
