24 Hr Mkts
Mark Thomson / LC 22 Sep 2008 3:27AM ET Is anyone able to provide some advice as to servicing a 24hr market.
At present we are planning on ensuring our FIX implementation follows the 24hr sequence reset rules as specified in the FIX Spec Vol 2 Session Protocol section.
In my case the client is the initiator and I am the acceptor.
I have a few questions:
1. In the 24hr case, should NextExpectedMsgSeqNum be used to ensure there are no race conditions between when the recommended test request / heartbeat is sent and then the logon msg ( with ResetSeqNumFlag=Y ) is sent?
2. If we need to do some house keeping around the session reset ( e.g archive old orders, roll logs , clear some caches etc ), would it be ok to perform these tasks following the successful logon msg ( with ResetSeqNumFlag=Y ) from the client.
3. In fact in the 24hr environment, what is the recommended approach to handle session housekeeping ( We need to do this so will don't bloat out a system with large numbers of old orders living until the whole system does a weekly reset for example)
Any comments appreciated?
