      Critical System Updates

      Market By Order Market Data

      Effective Sunday, March 26 (trade date Monday, March 27), to increase market transparency and customer choice, CME Group will continue the rollout Market by Order (MBO) for CME Globex markets.

      Market Data Platform with MBO will feature:

      • Ability to view individual queue position and size of individual orders at a price while remaining anonymous
      • Existing channels enhanced to provide both MBO and MBP data on a single feed
      • CME Direct support
      • Exchange and asset class roll out model

      The client impact assessment provides functionality and messaging information.

      MBO is now available in New Release for customer testing. Please view the updated MBO rollout schedule for production.

      To ensure customers can access, trade and process the market data for Market By Order (MBO), CME Group held a mock trading session this Saturday, March 11. Customers must register with their Global Account Manager (GAM) for this session in advance. During this mock trading session, customers may test MDP 3.0 Market Data, Order Entry, and Trade Matching. For more information about the Mock Trading Session, please view the mock trading session script. All customers and trading system providers who plan to support MBO are strongly encouraged to participate.

      With the introduction of MBO overall incremental feed bandwidth is expected to increase 30-40%. During peak times the number of incremental feed packets per millisecond may increase up to 40-50%.

      The MBO certification suite is now available in AutoCert+ for customer testing. Customer systems who choose to process MBO via CME Globex must complete this certification.

      Indicative Opening Enhancements

      Effective Sunday, March 26 (trade date Monday, March 27), CME Group will continue implementing the enhancement to Indicative Opening behavior to increase transparency and provide market participants with Indicative Opening Quantity. With this enhancement, a new MDP3 Indicative Opening Quantity (IOQ) statistic will be sent with the Indicative Opening Price (IOP). The tag will represent the probable aggregated quantity of all orders executed during the opening. The IOQ will include max show and stop order quantity.

      Along with this change, the logic for calculating the book quantity during the pre-open and reserve states will also be updated.

      The client impact assessment provides dates, functionality and messaging information.

      Indicative Opening Enhancements is now available in New Release for customer testing. Please view the Indicative Opening Enhancements Rollout Schedule for production launch dates.

      New Functionality

      Globex Risk Management Enhancements: Inline Credit Controls

      In Q2 2017, in addition to existing risk management controls, CME Group will offer optional, more granular pre-trade risk management capability through the In-Line Credit Control (ICC) tool.

      The ICC tool allows Clearing Member Firms and Executing Firms to set daily position limits for CME Globex, per product, at the account level through Account Manager.

      The new functionality will feature:

      • Daily quantity position limits applied per product at the account level.
      • Positions reset to flat at the end of the day. Good 'Til Cancel (GTC) and Good 'Til Date (GTD) orders will roll-over to be calculated in the next day’s working orders.
      • No latency differential; all orders are subject to the same ICC processing.
      • Both Clearing Member Firm and Executing Firm Risk Admins can register accounts and set limits.
        • The most restrictive limit applies.
        • Clearing Member Firm and Executing Firm Risk Admins can view each other's account limits.
        • Clearing Member Firms and Executing Firms cannot change the other's limit.
      • Email alerts can be set up when pre-set threshold level breaches occur (for example, at 80%).

      See more on Viewing and Managing Inline Credit Control Limits and Configuring Alerts and Policies for Inline Credit Controls.

      For registered client systems, a new or cancel/replace order that violates specified position limits will be rejected. CME Globex will send a Session Level Reject (tag 35-MsgType=3) message including tag 58=<Reject Reason>.

      Reject Reason Tag 58-Text
      Position Limit Violation Position Limit Violation for Account: <Account>, Position Increase: <position> makes position above the BUY Position Limit: <Limit> by amount: <Amount>. Limit set by CMF for Product Code: <Product Code>
      Position Limit Violation for Account: <Account>, Position Increase: <position> makes position above the BUY Position Limit: <Limit> by amount: <Amount>. Limit set by EF for Product Code: <Product Code>

      This new functionality is currently available for customer testing in New Release.

      • Cancel a designated quote set by Quote Set ID; client system provided unique identifier.
      • Cancel a side (Buy/Sell) of the designated Quote Set ID.
