[Quickfix-users] Conditionally required field missing

[ka w. <ka...@gm...>]

Hi,

I try to send a market order using the QuickFix42.NewOrderSingle method.
If I don't set the price field, I obtain the following problem:
"58 = Conditionally Required Field Missing <44>".
However, in the XML file, Price is not a required field. So, why I can not
send my message?
Moreover, if I set any other field from not required to required in my XML
file, I don't have any message error when I try to send a message whithout
defining a new required field. Why?
I am a new user of quickfix, maybe I am missing something important.

Thanks,
Kamel

Dear Kamel,



What sort of order is it? The price field is required for limit orders
(and some others too, I think). What is the value you have for OrdType
(40)?



Yours,



Dan

Hi,

- That was a market order. But maybe this error is coming from my "acceptor"
configuration as I did a FIX certification this morning    and I had no
problem to send a market order without a price.
Do you know where the problem is coming from?

- Also, if I set any other field from not required to required in my XML
file, I don't have any message error when I try to send a message without
defining a new required field. Why? How can I reflect the changes done in
the dictionary into my program?

Thank you,
Kamel

Can you post the FIX messages log for this?  Did you set tag 40=1 
(OrdType=Market)?

The data dictionary is for validation of incoming messages.
