If you have GNU grep I'd suggest making the regexp a little stricter
so you don't get any false positives (e.g. something like 135=8):

     grep -c '[[:cntrl:]]35=8' logfile

What you're looking for is really a perfect job for a Perl script
though.  Here's the skeleton of something that can read a quickfix
message store (or any file that just contains raw FIX messages one
per-line) and parses each message into a hash of field IDs and values.
 The rest it up to you:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
while (<>) {
     chomp;
     my %MSG = map { split /=/, $_, 2 } split /\001/;
     # Do something with %MSG
}
