RE: [Quickfix-developers] Changing SenderCompID

No

From the CME's perspective the SenderCompID works like this: chars 1-3
are a session ID, chars 4-6, are the FirmID (the clearing house firm id
that is) and char 7 is a single char that is set based on various
conditions (usually P for primary server or B for backup server but
there is a few other cases).

The SenderSubID is for identifying a trader within a firm.
