  • Order/Trade Data contains orders immediately executed (such as orders with conditions for executed volume like FOK, FAK, etc.) which have been unavailable in the existing all-order information.
    FOK (Fill or Kill) : In the case where all the volume is not executed immediately, cancel all the volume.
    FAK (Fill and Kill) : In the case where there is unfilled volume after the order is partially executed, cancel the unfilled volume.
  • Order/Trade Data and Timestamp Data contain no information that identifies the user who placed the order.
  • Timestamp Data shows the time when an individual order message passes each timestamping point in nanoseconds. The data might miss some of the order information when the number of orders rapidly increases in a day or some malformed packets in the traffic cause any unexpected issues in relevant system.
  • The data needs to be decoded according to a designated binary format before being used.
  • Drop copy data is only available for OSE trading participants.

Customers can choose Regular Service and/or Spot Data Service as below according to their Alternative Data needs and preferences.
