Using the Adapter

The FXall FIX adapter allows a StreamBase application to connect to the Accelor FXall FX trading infrastructure and to exchange FIX messages with it.

Because this adapter uses the FIX protocol to communicate with the FXall infrastructure, its user-visible functionality is nearly identical to that of the StreamBase FIX adapter. See the FIX Adapter page for primary instructions on configuring and using the FXall adapter.

The FXall adapter has the following differences, compared to the FIX adapter:

  • FXall Password:

    Because FXall venues require a password to be included at logon, you must specify this password in the adapter's configuration file.

    • QuickFIX/J engine: Add a Password=MyPassword entry either in the session-specific section or the [DEFAULT] section of the file.

    • StreamBaseFIX engine:

      Add the following section to your session's <session> tag of the StreamBaseFIX configuration file: 

      <password>MyPassword</password>

As shipped with StreamBase, this adapter supports the QuickFIX/J and StreamBaseFIX FIX engines. Contact StreamBase Systems Technical Support if you need to use a different FIX engine with this adapter.
