Re: [Quickfix-developers] Re peating Group adding to PositionReport message

[Gert V. T. <gv...@go...>]

Hi Draupnir thanks for the reply.

I can see how to create groups however I am having trouble seeing how the
structure of the PositionReport relates to position information.

For example, lets say I have just 1 position and we are short 10000 stocks
of BHP.AX <http://bhp.ax/> - this involves us (SUSQ) and a counterparty
(lets say commonwealth bank, CBA) and some information *about this
particular position*.

In the ASIC FIX rules of engagement document
http://www.asic.gov.au/asic/pdflib.nsf/LookupByFileName/ShortSellingReporting-RulesOfEngagement.pdf/$file/ShortSellingReporting-RulesOfEngagement.pdfon
page 20 the message is described. On page 21 it gets to Tag no 453
(NoPartyIDs tag).

Now I expect to have to create a group after this, only I don't know what
group to create (I would have expected something like a 'Position' group
since the information is 'grouped' by position). But the available groups
(in QuickFix44.PositionReport class) are only:
NoPartyIDs
NoPositions
NoPosAmt
...

------------------------


QuickFix44.PositionReport posReport = new QuickFix44.PositionReport(
                new PosMaintRptID("TEST_Rpt_ID"),
                new PosReqResult(1), //no. of position reports

                new ClearingBusinessDate("20100122"),
                new Account("SUSQ"),
                new
AccountType(AccountType.ACCOUNT_IS_HOUSE_TRADER_AND_IS_CROSS_MARGINED),

                new SettlPrice(10.0), //why is settlement price required
here?

                new SettlPriceType(SettlPriceType.FINAL),
                new PriorSettlPrice(10.0)
                );

            posReport.setField(new TotalNumPosReports(1)); //sending only 1
PosReport
            posReport.setField(new NoPartyIDs(2)); //submitting entity &
short-seller's details - not sure if this is right?

    // now what to do?

------------------------------
-------------

Perhaps I am misunderstanding how positions are grouped and that rather each
position (short 10000 BHP.AX <http://bhp.ax/> ) maps to only ONE
PositionReport object ?? (and then these are in turn added to a group?
however doesn't like from the doco that this is the case).


Thanks again for your help, much appreciated.
