Dear Börse Frankfurt and Börse Frankfurt Zertifikate Participant,

With this Newsflash, we would like to inform you about an additional feature that we will provide for knock-out and revert events on the trading venue Börse Frankfurt (XFRA).

In order to further ease the processing of knock-out and revert events, Deutsche Börse will provide additional FIX/ETI MassCancellation messages for these events. The messages will be introduced analogue to the messages that are provided in case of an instrument suspension. Participants who do not require these additional messages can ignore them. 

1.  Current set-up

In the case of instrument knock-outs and knock-out reverts, the FIX/ETI MassCancellation messages currently sent contain the information that all persistent and non-persistent orders have been deleted. A list of the persistent order IDs affected is not included. The information sent via the ETI and FIX messages is as follows:

ETI: Mass Cancellation Event with 

• tag 28721 MassActionReason = 115 – Instrument Knock Out and 118 – Instrument Knock Out has been reverted
• tag 18 ExecInst = 3 (persistent and non-persistent orders)

FIX: Order Mass Action Report with

• tag 28721 MassActionReason = 115 – Instrument Knock Out and 118 – Instrument Knock Out has been reverted
• tag 30018 UExecInst = H Q (persistent and non-persistent orders)

2.  Future set-up

From 13 August 2020 onwards, in the event of instrument knock-outs and knock-out reverts, the following ETI/FIX messages will be sent in addition to the existing messages detailed above. The additional feature will be available in production as of 24 August 2020.

ETI: Order Mass Cancellation Notification with

• tag 28721 MassActionReason = 107 – Instrument Suspended
• tag 18 ExecInst = 3 (persistent and non-persistent orders)
• tag 534 NoAffectedOrders containing group of order IDs

FIX: Order Mass Action Report with

• tag 28721 MassActionReason = 107 – Instrument Suspended
• tag 30018 UExecInst = H Q (persistent and non-persistent orders)
• <AffectedOrdersGrp> containing group of order IDs

To assist participants in identifying the list of the persistent order IDs affected, instrument knock-outs and knock-out reverts will additionally contain the "Instrument Suspended" notification together with a list of the respective order IDs which have been deleted.  

3.  Börse Frankfurt Simulation Focus Days
