{{Quickfixn}} End of Day Logout

[Campbell Wild]

I think it would definitely make sense to add this to the enhancements list.  If you have multiple sessions and want some coming down at weekends and not others, there doesn’t appear to be a way?

Correct, you should not use StartDay/End if you want a daily session.  You will need to use a Scheduled Task or other cron-like job control mechanism to start/stop on weekends.

I’ve been reading around a bit and think I may understand what the problem is. By defining StartDay and EndDay I have created a week long session which is expecting to log-on on StartDay at StartTime and log-off on EndDay at EndTime.

If this is correct, and by removing references to StartDay and EndDay, will I achieve what I require: A daily session which logs on/off at 6am/7pm and resets sequence numbers?
If so, a second question is, how do I stop the initiator attempting to connect on weekends?

Thanks,

​Hi,



I am having trouble automatically logging out at the end of the day and resetting the sequence numbers. I thought this all happened automatically at the `EndTime', or do I need to handle this in code?

Here is my initiator.cfg:
# default settings for sessions
[DEFAULT]
FileStorePath=store
FileLogPath=log
ConnectionType=initiator
ReconnectInterval=10
SenderCompID=XXX
StartDay=monday
EndDay=friday

[SESSION]
BeginString=FIX.4.2
TargetCompID=YYY
StartTime=06:00:00
EndTime=19:00:00
HeartBtInt=30
##LIVE
SocketConnectPort=9xxx
SocketConnectHost=1xx.xx.xxx.143
DataDictionary=../../spec/fix/FIX42.xml

Here is an extract from *.event.current.log: (nothing at 7pm, first messages around this time)
20141009-19:10:12.862 : Received logout request
20141009-19:10:12.863 : Sending logout response
20141009-19:10:12.864 : Session FIX.4.2:XXX->YYY disconnecting: Received logout request
20141009-19:10:22.855 : Connecting to 1xx.xx.xxx.143 on port 9xxx
20141009-19:10:22.863 : Connection succeeded
20141009-19:10:22.863 : Initiated logon request
20141009-19:10:22.902 : Verify failed: MsgSeqNum too low, expecting 10107 but received 1

The FIX messages immediately before and during/immediately after 19:00:00 are just the usual heartbeats, nothing more.

Thanks,
