afsFix Service

afsFix.exe is a server application that 

• sends released afstrade orders to your FIX gateway (e.g. Brass) for processing. 
• receives executions from your Fix gateway and places those executions into a ticket queue for later processing.

To start afsFix:

• Place the afsFix.exe application in the same directory as afstrade to share the afstrade.ini file.
• Setup the [FIX] section of the afstrade.ini file.
• Double click afsFix to run the application
• Log in to afsFix with a database ID set up for just running afsFix

Once run, afsFix will send all pending, released order to your FIX gateway.  afsFix will then poll the afstrade database for new released orders, sending them to the FIX gateway.

afsFix.exe may also be run as a Windows service.  Contact AFS for details.
