FIXP Support

FIX vs FIXP

Artio provides support for both the commonly used test based FIX protocol and the more modern binary FIXP protocol. If you're interested in details of the FIXP protocol standards then they can be found over at https://www.fixtrading.org/standards/fixp/. This page doesn't document the protocol itself but how it is supported by Artio.

Artio supports two different FIXP Protocols: iLink3 and Binary EntryPoint. Most of the internal implementation is shared but there are significant differences between the two FIXP protocols that result in internal implementation differences.
