Important CBOT Integration Update New! Mock Trading Session Added Thank you for making last Saturday's integration mock trading session a success. More than 110 entities and 70 front-end systems participated on December 15. To allow additional testing time, we are adding another mock trading session this Saturday, December 22. The schedule will follow the same approach as last Saturday's session: 8:30 a.m. CT: Customer login to CME Globex Instrument Creation (MO) messages available for download 9 - 10 a.m. CT: Scripted testing End-to-end testing through Clearing 10 - 11 a.m. CT: Unscripted testing Front-end testing only CME Group injects CBOT futures orders into markets Please note the following key details: CME Group strongly recommends customers test any new iLink IDs in production before the Saturday mock trading session. In previous mock trading sessions, some QuickFIX users were unable to trade due to a QuickFIX configuration issue. Please ensure that your application is configured to permit Saturday trading. CME Group has extended the cut-off date for issuing new iLink IDs to Thursday, December 20, from the originally announced December 15. No new iLink IDs will be issued between December 20 and January 14.† During this Saturday's session, the e-cbot simulation environment will not be available. † Any exceptions to the iLink ID freeze must have CME Group senior management approval. The updated CBOT Mock Trading Plan is available online. The Client Impact Assessment for the CBOT & Hosted Exchange launch on CME Globex is also available. All documentation for the migration of CBOT & Hosted Exchange products to the CME Globex electronic trading platform is available on the CME Group Web site.
