On Monday, February 28, 2022, MEMX plans to make the following updates to order entry validations. These updates are currently available in the MDE test facility and will be available in production during the Saturday, February 26, 2022, UAT.
- If a request has one or more reserve order tags set then all the required reserve order tags must be set or the request will be rejected. Two exceptions are: (see below table for more details)
- If DisplayQty = OrderQty and no other reserve order tags are set the request will be accepted.
- If Display Qty = 0 and the order is hidden and no other reserve order tags are set the request will be accepted.
- If ExpireTime is set and TimeInForce is not GoodForTime then the request will be rejected.
- If MinQty < 1 then the request will be rejected.
DisplayQty (1) | DisplayMethod (1) | ReserveReplenishmentTimeType (1) | DisplayMinIncr (2) | Current Behavior | Strict Validation Behavior |
< OrderQty and > 0 | Initial or RandomizeBySize | Immediate or Random | Positive Number | Accept | Accept |
= OrderQty | Not Defined | Not Defined | Not Defined | Accept | Accept |
> 0 | Undisclosed (hidden) | Not Defined | Not Defined | Accept | Reject |
= 0 | Undisclosed (hidden) | Not Defined | Not Defined | Accept | Accept |
Not Defined | Initial or RandomizeBySize | Not Defined | Not Defined | Reject | Reject |
< OrderQty and > 0 (3) | Not Defined | Immediate or Random (3) | Positive Number (3) | Accept | Reject |
(1) Required reserve order tags.
(2) DisplayMinIncr required only if DisplayMethod = RandomizeBySize.
(3) If any combination of these tags are defined the current behavior is to accept the request and process as a non reserve order. After Strict Validation is enabled these requests will be rejected.
