Trading Status Message Fields
The Trading Status message is used to indicate the current trading status of a complex instrument. A Trading Status message will be sent whenever a complex instrument trading status changes.
A Trading Status message will be sent for all complex instruments as they transition through various trading states.
Starting at 7:30 a.m. ET, Cboe will send a Trading Status of Q once complex orders can be accepted for queuing in preparation for the RTH open. At or after 9:30 a.m. ET, Cboe will send a Trading Status of T as complex instruments are open for trading. Cboe will send a Trading Status of L as Curb-eligible Products transition from RTH trading to Curb trading.
A Trading Status message will also be sent:
- for a Regulatory Halt Quoting period in any complex instrument where the underlying has experienced a Regulatory Halt as well as the Trading resumption for the same instrument.
The Trading Status field will be used to represent the status of the RTH and Curb sessions. The GTH Trading Status field will be used to represent the status of series that trade during the GTH session.
