With FIX versions up to FIX.4.2, the correct answer would be ExecType=Fill(2). This is illustrated in the FIX.4.2 specification Appendix D example D1.

With FIX versions after FIX.4.2, both these ExecTypes have been superseded by ExecType=Trade(F), thus removing the previous anomaly.

I hope this helps.
