The key issue with respect to IOC orders in the Reg NMS world is which Automated Trading Centers will you be directly routing to? With respect to IOC orders, some ATCs support both routable and non-routable IOCs. Some ATCs support only non-routable IOCs.

 

As many of them have designed their own customized IOC or ISO/IOC order types for the Reg NMS world, you will have to code to their specifications.

 

For example, as you pointed out Eric, the NYSE Reg NMS IOC (SOC) order is non-routable and their FIX spec dictates using Tag 9487 = SOC

 

NASDAQ uses a standard IOC message (59 = 3) for a non-routable IOC. A routable IOC would be indicated by putting the appropriate modifier in Tag 100 ExInst.
