Summary
Currently active, values submitted into TEXT3 field found in the T7 and C7 platform and respective reports had been standardized. This field is populated by our STP vendors to help identify which broker a trade originated from.
The TEXT3 field achieves this by using a broker prefix “Short Code” followed by trade information/ID.
In the following, ECC provides you with an update to the TEXT3 codes.
This includes new brokers who have joined since the last circular (dated 11/2023) .
Structure
The Broker Code prefix contains a minimum length of 3 characters, placed at the beginning of the value.
[Broker Code] [Trade ID/other information – alphanumeric]
To identify the broker, please pay attention to the first 3 characters of the Broker Code, these are represented as a unique combination.
The list of brokers is available on EEX’s website at:
