FIX with QuickFixEngine anybody?

Gent's thanks for the info!

I'm doing a QuickFIX interface to Nexa and, after meeting Chaz & Partick @ the Trader's Expo in Chicago, plan to integrate RedSky in the near future.

Quote from rufus_4000:

This is off topic ... But I am curious, how do you find the TT FIX Adapter, in terms
of standard compliance, performance, etc?

Russ Rausch and I had a long chat about a year ago, when they were
working on it, and like their MD mechanism, it had some clear
performance problems ...

Just curious.

I haven't done a full load test to measure performance but it appears to be as fast as the X-Trader platform for both market data and fills.

As to standards compliance, I'm sure you're aware that anyone who has this API had to sign a NDA so I can't comment on specifics.

There are custom fields and messages and you can consider those non-standard but that's just life: I don't expect a FIX 4.2 API to be re-written when they just want to add some FIX 4.3 messages.

The API works well and the TT folks are very responsive.

Hope it helps,

Francis
