Notice of Decommissioning of the HTTPS Market Data APIs for NYMEX ClearPort® Trading
In an effort to enhance the delivery of market data from the NYMEX ClearPort® Trading system for the purposes of trading, the Exchange has implemented a Financial Information eXchange (FIX) 4.2 Market Data API solution. This enhancement is now available in production for NYMEX ClearPort® Trading. The FIX 4.2 Market Data API provides a push technology allowing customers to receive Level 1 Market Data Top of Book Trade Data, Level 1 Market Data Top of Book Bid/Ask and Level 2 Market Data Full Market Depth Bid/Ask to integrate into their customized NYMEX ClearPort® Trading FIX 4.2 Protocol application programming interface. In view of the superior features of the FIX 4.2 API that is now available, the Exchange plans to decommission the HTTPS/XML based Market Data APIs to NYMEX ClearPort® Trading on Friday, April 28, 2006. We strongly encourage all current HTTPS/XML format market data subscribers to immediately begin development and testing to incorporate the new FIX 4.2 based market data for NYMEX ClearPort® Trading. To review the FIX 4.2 Market Data API specifications and gain access to the certification environment, please logon to Developer's Dashboard at https://www.services.nymex.com/ddash/ and navigate to the NYMEX ClearPort® Trading Market Data API section.
