Quote Cancelled Message Fields

A Quote Cancelled message will be sent to indicate an unsolicited cancellation of a quote entered with a Quote Update or Complex Quote Update message. An unsolicited cancellation is used, for example, when a resting quote is cancelled due to MTP with an inbound order or quotes are being cancelled due to a risk trip.

This message may be expanded in length in the future with new fields added to the end. To maintain forward compatibility, be prepared to receive a message longer than the documented length and to gracefully ignore those extra fields.
