Settlement Message Fields
Settlement messages are used to provide information concerning indicative, approved, or corrected daily and final settlement prices for CFE products. An indicative daily settlement price (Issue = I) is calculated by the system and sent immediately after an instrument closes trading but before the settlement price is approved. An approved settlement price (Issue = S) is sent once the CFE Trade Desk approves a settlement price for an instrument. If there is an error in the approved settlement price, then it may be re-issued (Issue = R).
