Placing an order

A new order is placed by issuing a com.apama.oms.NewOrder event. The monitor generates a FIX ClOrdId and maps this event to a FIX NewOrderSingle message and sends it to the specified session. The following inputs are required:

Input	Description
OrderId	The block order id seed
ServiceId	"FIX"
Broker	Unused
Book	Unused
Market	The session (i.e. transport) to use
Exchange	Unused
Symbol	The instrument (as defined by the exchange)
Price	The price (should be zero for market orders)
Qty	The quantity to trade
Side	The side 1=BUY, 2=SELL
Type	The order type (as defined by the exchange)
extraParams	Any extra parameters to be sent with the order (Note, genuine FIX field names will be automatically translated to their integer tag equivalent)

Once in market, the monitor listens for execution reports and translates these to corresponding com.apama.oms.OrderUpdate events that describe the current state of the order.
